It looks like you used <b> tags instead of <strong> tags.

From this site:
According to the HTML 5 specification, the <b> tag should be used as a LAST resort when no other tag is more appropriate.

In this case, the <strong> tag will accomplish what needs to be done, so it should be used instead.

Here is an example:

<div>
  <h2>Shopping List</h2>
  <ol>
    <li>Item 1</li>
    <li>Item 2</li>
    <li>Item 3</li>
  </ol>
  <p>This is a <strong>paragraph</strong></p>
</div>

You need to add a paragraph tag that is nested inside the div tags you made on step 1. Inside that paragraph tag, you can type anything you want, but make sure you put strong tags around it so they will be bold.
