Front End Web Development Techdegree Graduate 56,488 PointsThey want you to style a class, and then extend that class when styling the dogs class. Here's how it might look:
.animals {
background-color: #369;
}
.dogs {
@extend .animals;
}

%animals { background-color: #369; }
.animals { @extend %animals; } .dogs { @extend %animals; }
