Tell us what’s happening:

Your code so far


<style>
  body {
    background-color: black;
    font-family: monospace;
    color: green;
  }
  .pink-text {
    color: pink;
  }
  .blue-text {
    color: blue;
  }
</style>
<h1 class="pink-text" "blue-text">Hello World!</h1>

This is not how you add second class in an element.
You just add it immediately after first class name followed by space and not in separate quotes.

That’s because the class in <h1> is pointing to .pink-text

Try also to write .blue-text next to .pink-text in your h1 (with space, not separetly) and you’ll see how it will override it.

Thank you so much, I edited the code as you guys said and it worked.

<style>

body {

background-color: black;

font-family: monospace;

color: green;

}

.pink-text {

color: pink;

}

.blue-text {

color: blue;

}

</style>

<h1 class=“pink-text blue-text”>Hello World!</h1>

Your HTML is wrong. Take out the quotes after pink-text and before blue-text and the blue text will override the pink text.

<h1 class="pink-text blue-text">Hello World!</h1>
