You have two semi-colons missing. In nav && in nav a, nav a:visited.

Set the background property, not the background-color property:

#gallery li {
   float: left;
  width: 45%;
  background: white;
  color: grey;
  margin: 2.5%;
}

I set all the code the teacher told in two videos. But, I don't know what's gone on with the "grid" of gallery.
