I have not done the sass course yet.However, margin and padding can accept em value in css. You can use percentage value with margin and padding which is very useful for reponsive design. I hope this was helpful:D

Hi Sayed! If you are talking about using em units as values for your margins and paddings, of course it's possible :)!
