What is wrong with this code?

I can't pass this challenge. The question challenge said to Set padding top and bottom to 15 px and right and left to 10px for navigation links. Is there something wrong with my code?

css/main.css
nav li {
  padding: 15px 10px;
  font-weight: 800;
  display: inline-block;  
}

a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

nav ul {
  margin: 0 10px; 
  list-style: none;
  padding: 0;
} 

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}

h1, h2 {
  color: #fff;
}

nav a {
  color: #fff;
}

nav a:hover {
  color: #32673f;
}

h1 {
  font-family: Changa One, sans-serif;
  font-size: 1.75em;
  font-weight: normal;
}

img {
  max-width: 100%;
}

#gallery {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  list-style: none;
}

#gallery li {
  float: left;
  width: 45%;
  margin: 2.5%;
  background-color: #f5f5f5;
  color: #bdc3c7;
}

Is the questions to set it for nav links ( <a> tag) or list item? Cause you used selector for navigation list items, maybe thats the problem

Nav li {} targets list items. Try nav a {} to target nav links
