No idea what I have done wrong?

I have only transitioned the colour and background but it says I'm doing it wrong.

style.css 
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */

.content {
    color: red;
  background: green;
  transition-duration: 1s, 5s; 
  transition-property: color, background;
}

.invert:checked ~ .content {
    color: #fff;
    background: #373737;
}

It is hard to tell if you are on task 1 or 2. But for task 1 you only need to set the transition-property. You don't need to specify the colors. For task 2 your values are off - they should be 400 ms and 500 ms
