It looks like you had task 1 of 2 complete, but put the code at the top. This was a trick question to get you to think about the cascading nature of css. You added the media query at the top, but below it is another h1, and for any screen over 480px wide, it would first read yours, and then read the one below yours and use that font-size. For this reason, you should place any generic styling at the top, and then more specific styling at the bottom of the page (i.e. The order should be no media queries, larger screen sizes, medium screen sizes, and finally small screen sizes.)

Here is the code I used and placed at the bottom.

/*
This is the code that I added for task 1
*/

@media screen and (min-width: 480px){
  h1 {font-size: 2.5em ; }
}

/*
This is the code that I added for task 2
*/

@media screen and (min-width: 660px){
  h2 {font-size: 1.75em ; }
}
