Media Query

The question states.. 'Inside the media query, select the list items inside the gallery and add a width of 28.3333%."

I wrote: @media screen and (min-width: 480px) {

gallery li {

width: 28.3333%; } }

I have checked several times but cannot figure out I dont know what I am doing wrong.. Can anyone tell me why the challenge does not accept my answer?

It keeps saying Bummer! Be sure to set the width of gallery list items to 28.3333% when the browser is wider than 480px...

css/main.css 
@media screen and (min-width:480px){
    #gallery li{    
     width: 28.3333%;

  } 

}



a {
  text-decoration: none;
}

#wrapper {
  max-width: 940px;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

#logo {
  text-align: center;
  margin: 0;
}

h1, h2 {
  color: #fff;
}

nav a {
  color: #fff;
}

nav a:hover {
  color: #32673f;
}

h1 {
  font-family: ‘Changa One’, sans-serif;
  font-size: 1.75em;
  font-weight: normal;
}

img {
  max-width: 100%;
}

#gallery {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  list-style: none;
}

#gallery li {
  float: left;
  width: 45%;
  margin: 2.5%;
  background-color: #f5f5f5;
  color: #bdc3c7;
}

nav ul {
  list-style: none;
  margin: 0 10px;
  padding: 0;
}

nav li {
  display: inline-block;
}

nav a {
  font-weight: 800;
  padding: 15px 10px;
}

.profile-photo {
  display: block;
  margin: 0 auto 30px;
      max-width: 150px;
  border-radius: 100%;
}

.contact-info {
  list-style: none;
  padding: 0;
  margin: 0;
  font-size: 0.9em;
}

.contact-info a {
  display: block;
  min-height: 20px;
  background-repeat: no-repeat;
  background-size: 20px 20px;
  padding: 0 0 0 30px;
  margin: 0 0 10px;
}

@media screen and (min-width: 480px) {

}

Your code is correct, but you should put it in the end of your CSS or after the #gallery li rule. The way you have it now it gets overridden later in the CSS file.

Yes I have got it! @media screen and (min-width:480px){ #gallery li{
max-width: 28.3333%;

}

} just to add max-width
