It said "Set the color of paragraphs to black using a hexadecimal value."
So, you have to select the paragraph tags which is p and apply the text color which use property color, not background-color. Also, the hexadecimal value of color black is not #fff (it's white).
If you need more hints, please ask. Hope this helps.
