The <!DOCTYPE> declaration must be the very first thing in your HTML document, before the <html> tag. The <!DOCTYPE> declaration is not an HTML tag; it is an instruction to the web browser about what version of HTML the page is written in.

They're just asking for the doctype declaration you have to put at the start of any html document.

<!DOCTYPE html>

If the answers posted are still confusing, I would strongly recommend watching the video again before moving on.
