1,376 PointsEM vs REM Code challenge
Can someone please check my code and how I'm approaching the problem below? I'm not sure I'm understanding this at all.
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */
html {
font-size: 16px; /*Quiz says h2 has a parent values of 16px
...Which is this value*/
}
header {
font-size: 1.5em;
}
.heading {
font-size: 5rem;
}
h2 {
3em; /*1em equals 16px. 48/16 equals 3. Shouldn't it be 3em?
Or am I missing something? */
}

Treehouse Moderator 145,860 PointsYes. You are correct in that the em
value needs to be 3. However, you don't have what needs to be 3 in the rule. The challenge asks to make it that font-size
, but you just have the value and no target. Have a look at the other rules in the challenge and then edit yours to match the structure.
Keep Coding! :)

1,376 PointsOh my goodness! I didn't even notice I had left that part out. Thank you so much for pointing that out, Jason! I appreciate you taking the time to look over my code. It, of course, works now that I included the target. Thank you again!!
