2,465 PointsTask 3 of 4 : Add two table cells inside each table row without filling in any data.
I was doing this task and it gave me a hint to include the 2 <td> inside the 4 <tr> which I did. It was pretty much the same task as Task #4 except it asked for 4 <td> in the 4 <tr>. I was able to pass that task, but I was unable to pass Task 3. I do not know what I am doing wrong. Please help me.

Courses Plus Student 10,864 PointsHello Zachary, you are doing great. The instruction says to add only 2 table cells inside the table rows. I see you have created 5 table cells which are the td tags. Now, you just have to remove 3 table cells from each table rows. You can see the code below where in the first row, there should had to be two table cells Name and Job according to the instruction. Now, you can fill with any word that you like in the rest of the td tags. Good luck with your studies. :)
