So, it says that you want to make the width of the body element so that two 150px elements and one 696px element fits inside it. Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but 150px+150px+696px is 996px. However, when I gave that answer, it said it was wrong. I'm possibly missing the point, but I don't see how we're supposed to fit content with a width of 996px inside a body element with less than that width. I reviewed the lesson and it says 964px...so I know the answer I'm supposed to give but it doesn't make sense.

You might want to report this to the Support staff.
