HTML-CSS

Can you please tell me why I am getting an error?

Your code so far


<style>
  :root {
    --red-color: red;
  }
  .red-box {
    background-color: red;
    background: var(--red-color);
    height: 200px;
    width:200px;
  }
</style>
<div class="red-box"></div>

it is correct in general, but this challenge expect you to use the same rule used in the rule with variable, so just background, it is a short-hand for the background-color rule
