Your console won't see my css

Tells me I'm not setting the width of the grids to 100%.

@media screen and(max-width: 705px){ .grid_1, .grid_2, .grid_3, .grid_4, .grid_5, .grid_6 { width: 100%; } }

> i do not think you need to call the grids

In this question they explicitly mention the grid classes.

> Write a media query at 705px where the layout begins to break, that forces grid_1 through grid_6 to span 100% width of the container.

Maybe you are thinking of a different question. There's a question in this course that mentions fluid image widths where the answer is max-width: 100%.
