set top margin to 0

The task was to set the top and bottom margin to 0 and left and right margin to 10px. Here is my code:

nav li{
  margin: 0px 10px 0px 10px;
}

Is this not correct?

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;
}

img {
  max-width: 100%;
}

#gallery {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  list-style: none;
}

#gallery li {
  float: left;
  width: 45%;
  margin: 2.5%;
  background-color: #f5f5f5;
  color: #bdc3c7;
}

nav li{
  margin: 0px 10px 0px 10px;
}

It might what you do short hand for it.

nav li {
  margin: 0px 10px;
}

The first value applies to the top and bottom and the second applies to the left and right
