At 07:06, is it possible to make the 'no. 8' div to expand and fill up the remaining gap?

Yes, that can be done. In the next stage of this course, you'll learn some additional properties that allow you to span columns using the grid lines as a reference.

Noted! Thanks.

I understand that auto-fit is supposed to fit all the explicit columns into the remaining space. if that's the case how come div no.8 is not expanded to fit the remaining space at 07:06?

The "auto-fit" setting will expand columns to fit the available space, but it will not cause items to cross grid lines.

Noted. Thanks for the explanation!
