I'm not sure what this question is asking me to do?

It is asking for me to replace the ampersand and copright symbols with HTML entities, which I've done but its not saying Correct?

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html> 
<html>
  <head>
    <title>My Page</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h3>Design &lt; Development</h3>
    <p>Contact me at <a href="mailto:mto5048@gmail.com">this email</a>.</p>
    <p> &amp; 2017</p>
  </body>
</html>

You have the right idea, but you're not using the correct HTML codes. You can google these or go somewhere like here.

<!DOCTYPE html> 
<html>
  <head>
    <title>My Page</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h3>Design &amp; Development</h3>
    <p>Contact me at <a href="mailto:mto5048@gmail.com">this email</a>.</p>
    <p>&copy; 2017</p>
  </body>
</html>
