oh yeah you are right. You also drop first <h1> and <h3> tag, in end tag you should write </h1> or </h3> then you pass your challenge.

So the request was "Set the main headline to a heading level 1 element. Then, place the line of text below the main headline inside opening and closing paragraph tags."

You have a typo in the exercise in the closing of <h1> is h1 instead of /h1
