You are correct, but you're not exactly understanding their question (or it's not really clear). Let's take a look at a valid hexadecimal value. Here's a nice blue color: #199BFF. And yes, in a valid hexadecimal value the highest letter is "F". But we can divide this hexadecimal value up. The 19 is the amount of red. The 9B is the amount of green. And the FF is the amount of blue. They were using the #RRGGBB to as placeholders to represent red, green, and blue, which is correct. So the answer they were expecting is "True" on this question. Hope this helps! :sparkles:
