Hey Hanane Ladj,

For this challenge, you do not have to declare any variable. You can simply select hidden li using a : hidden pseudo-selector and then add .show() method.

Secondly, you need to hide div element, to do that you just need to select div and apply hide method.

Here's the final version:

$('li:hidden').show();
$('div').hide();

Hope this helps!
