its says select the nav links and set the top and bottom padding to 15px and the left and right padding to 10px.

Shouldn't it look something like this:

padding: 15px 10px;

or like this

padding: 15px 10px 15px 10px;

Neither or these work.

nav a {
padding: 15px 10px;
}

You have to select the "a". To me it seems that you only used nav{} Most of my errors also happen, because I read too fast.

nav ul {
  margin: 0 10px;
  list-style: none;
  padding: 0;
}

nav ul li {
  display: inline-block;
}

nav ul li a {
  font-weight: 800;
  padding: 15px 10px;
}
