You have a paragraph <p>

and you’re trying to style it with a <h2> tag

<p style =" "

Same here you have an <h1> tag

and you’re trying to apply <h2> styles

<h1 style=" ">

the h2 in the information is on purpose, to test you i guess. In the previous exercise was explained that style is an attribute which you can add to opening, so lets say i have:

<h4>heading with style</h4>

i can just add the style attribute to the h4 opening tag:

<h4 style="">heading with style</h4>

same goes for other headings and paragraphs. The opening and closing tags should still match, no need to create additional opening tags in the process of adding a style attribute
