I can't get past the rem question in the quiz. If the base font size is 1em, isn't the font-weight of the nested 1rem?

Hey Mary,

Here is a step-by-step solution to this code challenge:

First select the h1 element, 16px is the default font size and 40px is the desired size. So do 40/16 and you should get a font-size property of 2.5em.

h1 {
  font-size: 2.5em;
}

Then, it asks you to make the paragraph have a font size of 24px. Since the default base size is 16px and the desired size is 24px you should do 24/16 which should give an answer of 1.5. Set this as your font-size property like so:

h1 {
  font-size: 2.5em;
}

p {
  font-size: 1.5em;
}

Finally it asks you to set the class more back to the base size of 16px using rem units. Remember that classes are selected with dot notation (so .more) and also that selecting it with the a element as a parent selector is redundant because there is only one .more class (I think this is where you went wrong) since rem is ROOT em it is based off of the default size which is 16px. So if you want to get 16px using the rem unit you would do 1 rem (because 1 times 16 is 16), so set 1rem as the font-size property.

h1 {
  font-size: 2.5em;
}

p {
  font-size: 1.5em;
}

.more {
  font-size: 1rem;
}

I hope that this helped you out!
