Trying to solve this code challenge but I can't find where I've gone wrong

The instructions are a bit confusing.

Open a scope on an <ul> with the ID menu. Inside that, open a scope on a <li> element. Using Sass nesting, add a media query so that the <li> elements will have an attribute of text-align: center when the media is screen and the <li> has a max-width of 500px.

The error says: Bummer! Select 'li' tags within the 'ul' that has an ID of '#menu'. Set their text-align property to center.

Here's what I have:

/* Write your SCSS code below. */
​
@media screen and (orientation: landscape) {
  img {
    width: 360px;
  }
}

#menu li {
  @media screen and (max-width: 500px) {
    li {
      text-align: center;
    }
  }
}

Try to remove "li" after the #Menu. # is an unique ID and it should be enough to just leave it as it is.

Thanks. I think I misunderstood the nested media query part, and how it works in Sass.

I've passed it now. Thanks for the help.
