How do I include a img tag

I am taking code challenge of adding an image tag. They keep telling me to make sure I include the img tag. Did I did it right?

index.html
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>Nick Pettit</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <a href="index.html">
        <h1>Nick Pettit</h1>
        <h2>Designer</h2>
      </a>
      <nav>
        <ul>
          <li><a href="index.html">Portfolio</a></li>
          <li><a href="about.html">About</a></li>
          <li><a href="contact.html">Contact</a></li>
        </ul>
      </nav>
    </header>
    <section>
      <ul>
        <li>
        <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
        <li>

Hi Edwin, it looks like you might be missing a hyphen ( - ) on two of the images.

Do you mean I should put a hyphen (-) between img src Thanks

Your code block here is missing a hyphen from the second and third image path name.

Instead of:

<section>
      <ul>
        <li>
        <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
        <li>
        <img src="img/numbers02.jpg" alt=""> /* Missing hyphen */
        </li>
        <li>
        <img src="img/numbers06.jpg" alt=""> /* Missing hyphen */
        </li>
      </ul>
      </section>

You should have:

<section>
      <ul>
        <li>
        <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
        <li>
        <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
        <li>
        <img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt="">
        </li>
      </ul>
      </section>

Thank you!! May I know how do i use hyphen(-). The video haven't mention it.

It should be to the right of the zero key on your keyboard, and it can help with readability in file names.
