It's confusing, I know. But a lot of the time with CSS the syntax is not exactly how it seems it should be written.
In this case, you are adding a bottom margin of 20px. This seems as though the syntax would be bottom-margin but it is in fact margin-bottom
This is because you are adding a margin, where are you adding it? To the bottom, hence the order this code takes
You will find this is the case with a lot of CSS
Hope this helps
