CSS How to Make a Website Styling Web Pages and Navigation Make a CSS Image Gallery

I'm confused about the challenge: Add CSS that will allow all images to fill their parent element. What is it asking?

What am I supposed to do here?

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;
}

#gallery {

}

Add CSS that will allow all images to fill their parent element.

In order to do that, you can target the img tag and apply the max-width property.

img {
  max-width: 100%;
}

Thanks, William. I ended up figuring it out.
