CSS CSS Basics (2014) Enhancing the Design With CSS Media Queries

I don't know what I'm missing.

Question:

Next, create a new media query that targets all devices when the viewport width is 768px or narrower. Inside the media query, target the .title element and set the font-size to 1.4rem. Finally, target the h1 element and set its font-size to 5rem.

My Answer:

@media (1020px) { .main-header { background-color: tomato; color: white; } }

@media (768px) { .title { font-size: 1.4rem; }

h1 { font-size: 5rem; } }

Reads: X Bummer! Did you specify the correct size for '.title'

style.css 
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */
@media (max-width: 1020px) {
  .main-header{ 
    background-color: tomato;
    color: white;
  }

@media (max-width: 768px) {
  .title {
    font-size: 1.4rem;
  }

  h1 {
    font-size: 5rem;
  }
}

      <h1 class="main-heading">Lake Tahoe, California</h1>

Looks like you're missing your closing bracket for the max-width: 1020px query.

@media has a specific format. I know there are people that don't like just straight up answers but, there is no way to just tell you without giving the answer...

@media screen and (min-width: 768px) {
  css code here.
}
