a child element is an element within an element(which is the parent element

<html>   /* this is parent of <head> and <body> */

  <head>   /* this is parent of <title> and child of <html> */
      <title>DOM Tutorial</title>   /* this is child of <head> */
  </head>

  <body>   /* this is parent of <h1> and <p> also it is child of <html>*/
      <h1>DOM Lesson one</h1>   /* this is child of <body> */
      <p>Hello world!</p>  /* this is child of <body> */
  </body>

</html>

its asking you to make the images fill their parent elements so it is 

img {
  max-width: 100%;
}

that should be it. when you set a child elment to max-width 100% it fills their parent element completly
