i do not understand

Does it have a mistake? Always said "Be sure to set the margin to 0"

the question is:Select the unordered list nested inside the nav element. Remove the margins on the top and bottom. Set the margins on the left and right to 10px.

I have already done that at the bottom.

Is it correct? Or other problem I do not get it.

css/main.css 
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 li {
  margin: 0 10px;
  padding: 0;
}

I'm not sure what the problem is. Can you post the HTML as well or give more information around what is not displaying correctly?

the unordered list would be "ul". "li" is the list item :)

nav ul {}

It says on the unordered list, not on the list item, so try:

nav ul {
    margin:0 10px; 
}
