Code challenge not working even though all code is correct

Hi,

I'm now stuck on Media Queries code challenge Task 2 of 3. The error message; 'Bummer! Did you float .logo left?' keeps being returned to me even though the code is 100% correct. I've tried it every way that I can think of but STILL doesn't work.

Here's my code:

/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */

/* Phones to Tablets */

@media only screen 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 only screen and (min-width: 769px) {
    .logo {
      float: left;
    }
    .main-nav {
      float: right;
    }
    .main {
      width: 40.425531914894%;
    }
    .extra {
      display: block;
      width: 23.404255319149%;
    }
  }

I really hope you can help on this I just can't seem to see where to go from here. As you can see; I HAVE floated the .logo to the left...

Edit: I've even tried it through copy + paste from CodePen - no joy...

Many thanks.

uhm you are missing the closing curly brace from the media query in your phone to tablets rule ...

@media (min-width: 481px) {

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

}
