Set the columns to expand and display on one line when they are 300px or wider. But when the columns are narrower than 3

Question

Some one can help me with this challenge?

Set the columns to expand and display on one line when they are 300px or wider. But when the columns are narrower than 300px, the browser will redistribute the space and display them on multiple lines.

code bellow

style.css

/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */

.row {
  display: flex;
}

.columns {
  justify-content: space-between;
}

@media ( min-width: 300px) {
  .columns {
    flex-direction: column;
    flex: 1;
  }
}

I don't think you want to change the flex-direction. You also won't need a media query since the flex properties can handle this. But for the width aspect of the challenge, you'll need to establish a flex-basis of 300px.

Since you already use the flex shortcut, you can add this value to it and it will set both properties at once.
