Line-height answer incorrect despite multiple entries.

Hello, I multiplied the line-height by 1.6 with the font-size which in this case is 1.25em. I got 2. The answer appears to be wrong which led me to try multiple values such as 20, 32. 1.6 and 1.25. I some how cannot get the answer.

You say you tried setting "line-height" to 1.6? But in the code above, the property is there but with no value.

Try entering 1.6 again as the value and you should pass to the next task.
