1,292 PointsI think I may have found your mistake:
You have written "image" instead you have to write "img"
image{ max-width: 100%; } => This is wrong.
img{ max-width: 100%; } => This is correct.

You can also check below where you write answer , Refference this Markdown Cheatsheet for syntax examples for formatting your post.

Code
Wrap your code with 3 backticks (```) on the line before and after. If you specify the language after the first set of backticks, that'll help us with syntax highlighting.
