Hey Carlos,

Gianmarco already fixed one of your mistakes which is that you have to write a colon instead of a period. However there is another problem which is that if you want to select every fourth element you have to write 4n instead of just 4.

This should work:

@media screen and (min-width: 480px) {
  #gallery li {
    width: 28.3333%;
  }
  #gallery li:nth-child(4n) {
    clear:left;
  }
}

I hope that helps! :)

Hi, for the nth-child selector you have to use : insead . like this

@media screen and (min-width: 480px) {
  #gallery li {
    width: 28.3333%;
  }
  #gallery li:nth-child(4) {
    clear:left;
  }
}

Don't work :/ "i use this but the test still are "Bummer! Did you set "clear: left" on every fourth gallery list item"

@media screen and (min-width: 480px) {

#gallery li { width: 28.3333%; } #gallery li:nth-child(4) { clear:left; } }
