To select every fourth child, you need to add the 'n' to the number, and use 'nth-child', like so:
#gallery li:nth-child(4n) {
clear: left;
}
Rewatch the previous few videos to let this sink in!

45,783 PointsDid you alter any other code? When I copy and paste your declaration inside the media query into the challenge, it passes just fine.

Thanks Erik, but my problem is with part #2 of the refactoring problem for Media-Query (for this 'Front-End Web Development Course' with Mr. Pettit):
"inside the media query - clear every 4th list item in the gallery ..
then I do this:
#gallery li:nth-item(3) {width:28.33%; clear:left;}
then I get more silly objections in red like:
"Did you set clear:left on every fourth gallery list item?"
WHAT's GOING ON HERE?
