## Description
<section id='description'>
The last challenge created a bar chart, but there are a couple of formatting changes that could improve it:
1) Add space between each bar to visually separate them, which is done by adding a margin to the CSS for the <code>bar</code> class
2) Increase the height of the bars to better show the difference in values, which is done by multiplying the value by a number to scale the height
</section>

## Instructions
<section id='instructions'>
First, add a <code>margin</code> of 2px to the <code>bar</code> class in the <code>style</code> tag. Next, change the callback function in the <code>style()</code> method so it returns a value 10 times the original data value (plus the "px").
<strong>Note</strong><br>Multiplying each data point by the <em>same</em> constant only alters the scale. It's like zooming in, and it doesn't change the meaning of the underlying data.
