Courses Plus Student 1,709 Pointshi robert, small misunderstanding, the font size is 1.25em or 20px. it telling me to do a unitless line height , what is it unitles? and why the answer is 1.6
Robert Lyon
7,551 PointsYeah sorry for the confusion. a unitless value is a value without any unit on the end of it. e.g em, rem or px The answer is 1.6 because the line height is 1.6 times larger than the font size.

Courses Plus Student 1,709 Pointsthank you for answer...so if i get it right , if i need to make the line-height 4 times larger, so the answer will be line-height: 4; ? and in this logic, when i mention something in the line-height value in other wards i am ordering in how much i want to multiply the font-size? and like that, make a space between the line?
Robert Lyon
7,551 PointsYeah the line height takes the font size and multiplies it by the number given and sets the new number as the line height. The best way to see how it works is to experiment with different line height numbers and look at how the space between the elements changes.
