10,143 PointsYou are creating an 'anchor' tag with a link to an image.
<a href="img/numbers-01.jpg">
What it also wants is an image tag inside the anchor tag so it knows what to show as the anchor. It is formatted as follows:
<img src="" alt="">
Where the source is the path to your image and alt is alternative text that will appear if the image fails to load.
