I can't pass challenge with img tag; hint says I need to include an img tag that displays "numbers-01.jpg"

Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? Thanks

There is no mention of an img directory which contains the images, usually this is mentioned when they set the challenge, i.e. include 5 images, they are all in a folder called 'img'.

I just tried the challenge and if you take out img/ in each of your src attributes then this should work :)

<li><img src="numbers-01.jpg" alt=""></li>

You didn't close your quotation marks for any of your images

  <ul>
    <li>
      <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg" alt="">
    </li>
    <li>
       <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg" alt="">                                  
    </li>
    <li>
      <img src="img/numbers-06.jpg" alt="">
    </li>
    </ul>

appose to your code . . .

  <ul>
    <li>
      <img src="img/numbers-01.jpg alt="">
    </li>
    <li>
       <img src="img/numbers-02.jpg alt="">                                  
    </li>
    <li>
      <img src="img/numbers-06.jpg alt="">
    </li>
    </ul>

Thanks very much. This plus removing img/ as Jess Taylor suggested helped.
