<label>Shirt Size:</label> <label for="small">Small</label><br> <input type="radio" id="small" value="small" name="shirt_size"> <label for="medium">Medium</label><br> <input type="radio" id="medium" value="medium" name="shirt_size"> <label for="large">Large</label><br> <input type="radio" id="large" value="large" name="shirt_size">

This should be the final code. I think maybe you added some details you shouldn't which is for another task after you completed the first two maybe. In the question sometimes at the end it says don't add any text yet just the label.
