The three letter combinations are only possible if there is a sequence. for eg. #44FF00 can be written as #4F0. While #4403AA has to be written explicitly as #4403AA as the 03 segment is not identical.
As for your question, target the paragraph element first using the p type selector, and set color to black like below
p {
color: #000;
}
Happy Coding
