Why is my code wrong

Challenge:

Create a child selector to target the anchor element that is a direct child of the div. Set its color to >green and font weight to bold.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>More Selectors</title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="css2-main-style.css" type="text/css" media="screen">
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css" type="text/css" media="screen">
</head>
<body>
    <h1>Combinators</h1>
    <div class="main">
        <p>Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Nunc pulvinar consequat tortor, nec venenatis erat elementum scelerisque. Curabitur sit amet risus nisi. Aenean aliquet euismod augue at viverra. Ut varius arcu in.</p>
        <a href="#">Lorem iaculis ullamco.</a>
        <h2>Donec tempor sodales</h2>
        <p>Sed tincidunt rutrum enim, vitae pharetra justo suscipit a. Nam eu egestas risus. Class aptent taciti sociosqu ad litora torquent per conubia nostra, per inceptos himenaeos. Nam tempor, augue quis.</p>
        <a href="#">Donec eget lorem id nisi.</a>
        <p>Sed sit amet nulla elit, vel lacinia nisi. Donec eget lorem id nisi vehicula auctor id et dui. Etiam aliquet aliquet sem in rutrum. Cras posuere pharetra <a href="#">sem vitae egestas</a>.</p>
    </div>
</body>
</html>

My code is

.main > p{
color:green;
fontweight:bold;
}
