Additional Pseudoclasses challenge 2 of 2

Could someone explain what this question is asking? " Create a new rule using the selector that targets an element only if its ID matches the hash in a URL. Set the background color to 'tomato'."

I am especially confused about the "only if it matches the hash in a URL" What does this mean?

Like the first part of this challenge (selecting root), there is a unique selector that can be used.

The question is asking: "Select the HTML element that has an ID which is identical to the hash in the URL". For instance: if the URL is http://teamtreehouse.com/user#edit, you're looking to style the HTML element of #edit.
