Code Challenge code not working.

Step one was to set the width of the gallery list items inside a media query and that worked. Now its asking to clear the 4th item in the list using clear left. I keep getting "Bummer! Did you use "clear: left;"

Here is my code, which is inside the media query at the bottom of the css:

  #gallery li:nth-child(4) {
    clear: left;
  }

That worked but this may want to be changed as it still works without the n in practice and in the video and explanation that is never mentioned.

Thank you for your help and it worked!!

It might look like it works the same, but li:nth-child(4) would select the 4th list item. Yet what the challenge asks is to select every 4th list item, so that's li:nth-child(4n).

Press edit and wrap your code with

```css

code here

```

SO we can read and see the code. If you cant do it, let me know i do it and you check it on how i did it.

I know :) i jsut want people to learn how to format the code correctly so it saves in time in the future because sometimes a mod wont see it and you could be stuck for few hours because no on can see the code.
