Next, in the second .progbar selector, add the pseudo-element that will insert content before the element. Don't forget

Hi Saud

The first 3 tasks asked to modify the rules that were already written. Below I have added the "::after" pseudo-element and the"::before" to the first and second ".progbar" rules that's already there:

/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */

.progbar::after {
  content: "";
  display: block;
  width: 50%;
  height: 100%;
  border-radius: inherit;
    background-color: #5ece7f; 
}

.progbar::before {
  content:"";
    display: block;
    width: 24px;
    height: 24px;
    border-radius: 50%;
    position: absolute;
    left: 49%;
    top: -9px;
    background-color: #7dd898; 
}

.progbar {
  height: 6px;
  border-radius: 3px;
  background: #d6d7d9;
  position: relative;
  margin-bottom: 3.875em; 
}
