3,169 PointsYou should use the following:
img {
max-width: 100%;
}
This will allow the img width to be as big as the parent element width, or smaller than the parent element width. This property is especially useful for responsive design, as it prevents the images from growing too large on different devices.

4,730 PointsSo, for this challenge, we need to set a maximum width to our images to have them fill up the contents of the parent. We need to create a rule that targets these images to change the width. I tried the challenge and was able to complete it using the following:
img { max-width: 100%; }
Hope this helps!
