No question is a stupid question
I don't want to give you the answer, but I will give you a hint. What letter does the word paragraph start with? :D
Keep up the good work

Courses Plus Student 15,815 PointsRight track, but wrong hex number. Since black is the absence of light, you'll want to set your value to
#000. Also, don't forget your semi-colon.
