I keep getting asked to insert an img tag in my code but I already have one. What am I doing wrong?

Why is this code not wokring? I keep receiving a message that says insert an image tag.

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

image is a self closing tag. try <img src="img/number-01.jpg" alt=""/> with "/" before you close

I think you are adding too much. Delete the <a href=...> lines out of your coding. Then add an 's' to the word numbers: <img src="img/numberS-01.jpg" alt="">

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

Think this should work, good luck!
