14,339 Pointsinline-block will work. Using float:left; would be throwing it off. Floats are useful in other ways for layout, but not what this particular task is calling for.
Inline-block will let each <li> remain a block-level element, while at the same time allowing surrounding content (the other <li>s) to flow around it as though it's inline.
.main-nav li {
display: inline-block;
}

7,995 PointsYou don't need to change anything on index.html only on style.css
.main-list li { display: inline-block; }
