I think that I need to do a clearfix on this challenge, but I am stuck and can't get it to work.

I'm stuck on this question. I don't know how to proceeed.

style.css 
/* Complete the challenge by writing CSS below */



.clearfix::after {
  content: "";
  display: table;
  clear: both;
}

.footer-nav {
  float: left;

}

.footer-nav li {
  float: left;
  display: inline;

}

.logo {
  float: right;
}
index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>

            <img class="logo" src="city-logo.svg" alt="logo">
            <ul class="footer-nav clearfix">

Give your footer tag the clearfix class.

<footer class="clearfix">

No, for the copyright they want you to create a new CSS rule for the existing class.
