when the last three characters are the same they can be left off.

Treehouse Guest TeacherIt's not "the last three", but whether or not both characters in a pair are the same.
If I want a light yellow, say #FFEE66, I can abbreviate that as #FE6 because all three pairs (one for red, one for green, one for blue) have duplicate values.
This has to be true for all three pairs, though, you can't do something like #FE62
