6,466 PointsWhat am I doing wrong? Clear property that clears left float.
I'm supposed to add a clear property that clears the left float, but can't seem to solve it. Tried researching but couldn't find a solution. Thanks!
/* Write the CSS in the media query below */
@media (min-width: 607px) {
img:nth-child(3n+4) {
float: left;
clear: left;
}
}

9,057 PointsI went into the challenge and solved it. simply what you need to do is put float left for all the images. Now on your pseudo-class that is when you need to clear both. float:left
& clear:left
need to be in two separate selectors.
Your code should look like this:
@media (min-width: 607px) {
img {
float: left;
}
img:nth-child(3n+4){
clear:left;
}

9,057 PointsTry putting clear:left
in it's separate selector. I have seen a developer before put it in ::after
