HTML ordered & unordered list

Add a nested ordered list inside the list "Shape"

<ul> <li>Shapes</li> <ol> <li>a</li> <li>b</li> </ol> <li>Colors</li>

</ul>

Hey!

Nesting elements means they need to be added before that element's closing tag. The ordered list needs to be inserted before the closing </li> for Shapes

<li>Shapes
  <ol>
    <li>a</li>
    <li>b</li>
  </ol>
</li>
