re-sizing text with rem

I'm stuck on the code challenge. The idea of rems is not clicking for me. The directions tell me to: Select the link with the class 'more'. Using the rem unit, set its font size back to the base font size of the root html element. I thought that this was equal to 1rem. What am I missing here?

I just went back and did the challenge so I could be on the same page as you. And you are correct, 1 rem. Set a.more{font-size:1rem;}
