which is just shorthand for
padding: 15px 10px 15px 10px;
which is also shorthand for
padding-top: 15px;
padding-right: 10px;
padding-bottom: 15px;
padding-left: 10px;

Padding and margin can be use this way. Its is in a clockwise process of "TOP RIGHT BOTTOM LEFT".

3,392 PointsThe padding property's order in the declaration is top, right, bottom and left. So it would look like that:
Example:
padding: 15px, 10px 15px 10px;
The shorthand version of the padding's order in a declaration would top and bottom is one value and left and right is another.
Example:
padding: (top, bottom), (left, right);
padding: 15px, 10px;
Hope this helps.
