Why doesn't gallery images show up in a new page?

I'm working on the How to Make a Website exercises and I'm having trouble linking my images in my gallery to a new page. When I click on my images, they show me a 404 error. How can I correct this?

I actually did the same thing a while back. Really good to make these mistakes to find out how crazy it can be searching through code =P

I think that you are typing wrong the name of the images, try "numbers" like this:

<a href="img/numbers-01.jpg">
