So I have my personal website and I have paragraphs within it. When viewed on a large screen it looks fine however on a phone it is in a single column and I would like to fix that. I have a screen shot with what I mean and a code pen with the code. I have tried using @media screen and (mad-width:) however it does not help.

@media only screen and (max-width: 500px) {
  .masthead {
    padding: 3em 0;
  }
  @media screen and (max-width: 600px) {
    .column-left {
      display: none;
    }
  }
  @media screen and (max-width: 1800px) {
    .button {
      display: none;
    }
  }
  .masthead-heading {
    font-size: 3em;
  }
  .content-footer {
    padding: 2em 2.5em;
  }
}

.about,
.about-content,
.skills,
.skills-content,
.title::after,
.text {
  color: white;
}

.navbar {
  background-color: #ac5fdb;

Here you go…

Add the following:
```
@media only screen and (max-width: 768px) {
    .about .about-content .right {
        width: 100% !important;
    }
}
```

You need to remove the width: 50%; on .about .about-content .right using a media query. The reason it’s rendering like that is that it’s using 50% of the available space on mobile, which is not much.

Could look something like this:
```
@media only screen and (max-width: 800px) {
    .about .about-content .right {
        width: 100%;
    }
}
```

Hey in your codepen you made a mistake. The max-width needs to go from wider screens to smaller ones and not the oposite way, because, as the lower value in the page will always overwrite the further up ones, your media queries will never be met.

Put the max-width media queries at the end of the css or at least after the element you want to have a different style on smaller screens.
Then start with the highest number (max-width="1800px") and end with the lowest one (max-width="500px").

so:
```
    //default (bigger than 993px)
    .class {
        font-size: 10px;
    }
    //992px and smaller
    @media screen and (max-width:992px){
        .class {
            font-size: 20px;
        }
    }
    //767px and smaller
    @media screen and (max-width:767px){
            .class {
                font-size: 24px;
            }
    }
    //600px and smaller
    @media screen and (max-width:600px){
            .class {
                font-size: 32px;
            }
    }
```

Just like Cervus and Kameron have pointed out
```
.about .about-content .right {width: 100%}
```
is your main fix, then the next issue is the padding left and right on your max-width class because of
```
box-sizing: border-box
```
it will render 100% and then remove 80px of space on either side. If viewed on a small device it will be removing to much of the available space for example on 320px wide screen half the available space would be removed.
```
.max-width {padding: 0 80px} 
```
Might be better being
```
.max-width {padding: 0 20px}
```
And then at a larger media query it can update to 80px when it fits.
