I'm asked to write a media query at a breakpoint, but I don't know what I did wrong. Can someone help me fix this?
@media screen and (max-width: 480px){
h1 {

}

margin: 0;
}
h1, h2 {

}
nav a {
color: #fff;
}

25,384 Pointsremember for a width of 480px and up, you need to have a base or minimum width of 480 (min-width) not max. and place at the bottom as james south said
@media screen and (min-width: 480px){
h1 {font-size: 2.5em;}
}
