Hi, I’ve been stuck on this exercise for over an hour and I can’t seem to find any help. Usually, after several attempts it will give me the solution but not in this case. Anyone spot what I did wrong?

    when 'orange-juice'     then 'drink'
    when 'soda'             then 'drink'
    when 'blt'              then 'sandwich'
    when 'grilled-cheese'   then 'sandwich'
    when 'tikka-masala'     then 'dinner'
    when 'chicken-parm'     then 'dinner'
     else 'other'
  end as category, round (1.0 * sum(amount_paid) / 
         (select sum(amount_paid) from order_items * 100, 2)) as pct
from order_items
group by 1
order by 2 desc;
