Many Time I saw the error on media queries and it doesn't work which I follow the video with the code
@media (min-width: 769px) {
.main-wrapper {
width: 95%;
margin: auto;
}
I just wondering since there would be red highlight on "min-width" and the "{" behind 769px. I don't know what wrong but before on "How to make the website lesson" I have some experience on media queries and before I did this
@media screen and (min-width: ... ) and it work.
What is the right way to do media queries see my code here

However, the code challenges may say that there is an error in your code if you aren't following the directions for the challenge. For instance, if you don't put the words "screen and" as part of the media query when the instructions say to do so, then it'll say that your code has an error. Sometimes it's pretty particular about what it will accept as a correct answer, but most of the time the instructions are very clear as to what they are looking for. So, as long as you follow the instructions closely, you should be fine.

2,234 PointsThanks for your answer. Thus about "screen and" if I put this in the code what would affect to the output?
