I keep getting a bummer about font-size on this challenge task. I don't see the problem...

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

@media (max-width: 768px) { .title { font-size: 1.4rem; } .h1 { font-size: 5rem; } }

size for title 1.4rem and 5rem for h1. for the above answer, I get BUMMER. what is wrong? I can't see it...

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

@media (max-width: 768px) {
 .title {
    font-size: 1.4rem;
  }
  .h1 {
    font-size: 5rem;
  }
}
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Lake Tahoe</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="page.css">

Because you are supposed to target the h1 element not the h1 class. You are using ".h1"; that makes it a class selector.

@media (max-width: 768px) {
 .title {
    font-size: 1.4rem;
  }
  h1 { /* should be h1 not.h1*/
    font-size: 5rem;
  }
}
