You can use the parent selector &, at the beginning of a selector like you did in step 3 of this code challenge. Well you can do the same thing at the end of a selector as well.

Basically you want to:

Select any <a> element that is child of a <p> which is inside of a <div> with a class of .footer

If you are still confused on how parent selector works at the end of a selector, you might want to go back and re-watch the video. After that feel free to write here about your understanding of how the parent selector works, I'll try to clear up any areas of confusion.
