Please Help, can't figure out the 'contact-info ul class select' question

For: Select the unordered list with the class contact-info and set the font size to 0.9em.'

Here's what I have:

.contact-info ul { font-size: 0.9em; list-style: none; margin: 0 0px; padding: 0 0px; }

It doesn't work for the question: 'Select the unordered list with the class contact-info and set the font size to 0.9em.'

It gives an error of: 'be sure to set the font-size to 0.9em'

Please show me the error of my ways! Thanks for your time! -Grant

.contact-info ul is selecting ul element under contact-info class.

ul.contact-info is selecting specific ul that has contact-info class

ul.contact-info {
  font-size: 0.9em;
  list-style: none;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}

Question can be bit confusing. If they asked ul element that has .contact-info class it will make more sense.
