Cannot go through the third task of adaptive layouts challenge

I've placed the rule ".extra {display: block;}" everywhere I could but it still won't help.

style.css 
/* Phones to Tablets */
.extra {
    display: block;
  }

@media all and (min-width: 481px) {

  .col {
    float: left;
  }

.main {
    width: 65.957446808511%;
}
.secondary {
    width: 31.914893617021%; 
}
.secondary,
.extra {
    margin-left: 2.127659574468%;
  display: block;
}

  .extra {
    display: block;
  }
}
/* Tablets to Desktop */
@media all and (min-width: 769px) {
  .logo {
    float: left;
  }

  .main-nav {
    float: right;
  }

.main {
    width: 40.425531914894%;
}
.extra {
    width: 23.404255319149%;
  display: block;
}

  .extra {
    display: block;
  }
}

the .extra element modified has to be inside the second media query:

/* Phones to Tablets */


@media all and (min-width: 481px) {

  .col {
    float: left;
  }

.main {
    width: 65.957446808511%;
}
.secondary {
    width: 31.914893617021%; 
}
.secondary,
.extra {
    margin-left: 2.127659574468%;
}

}
/* Tablets to Desktop */
@media all and (min-width: 769px) {
  .logo {
    float: left;
  }

  .main-nav {
    float: right;
  }

.main {
    width: 40.425531914894%;
}
.extra {
    width: 23.404255319149%;
  display: block;
}

}/*end of media query*/

removed all the unnecessary .extras from the code
