# --description--

Luego de crear tu variable, puedes asignar su valor a otras propiedades CSS haciendo referencia a su nombre.

```css
background: var(--penguin-skin);
```

Esto cambiará el fondo de cualquier elemento que utilice esta variable a "gray" (gris) porque ese es el valor de la variable `--penguin-skin`. Ten en cuenta que los estilos no se aplicarán a menos que los nombres de las variables utilizados estén escritos exactamente igual.

# --instructions--

Aplica la variable `--penguin-skin` a la propiedad `background` de las clases `penguin-top`, `penguin-bottom`, `right-hand` y `left-hand`.

# --hints--

La variable `--penguin-skin` debe aplicarse a la propiedad `background` de la clase `penguin-top`.

```js
assert(
  code.match(
    /.penguin-top\s*?{[\s\S]*background\s*?:\s*?var\s*?\(\s*?--penguin-skin\s*?\)\s*?;[\s\S]*}[\s\S]*.penguin-bottom\s{/gi
  )
);
```

La variable `--penguin-skin` debe aplicarse a la propiedad `background` de la clase `penguin-bottom`.

```js
assert(
  code.match(
    /.penguin-bottom\s*?{[\s\S]*background\s*?:\s*?var\s*?\(\s*?--penguin-skin\s*?\)\s*?;[\s\S]*}[\s\S]*.right-hand\s{/gi
  )
);
```

La variable `--penguin-skin` debe aplicarse a la propiedad `background` de la clase `right-hand`.

```js
assert(
  code.match(
    /.right-hand\s*?{[\s\S]*background\s*?:\s*?var\s*?\(\s*?--penguin-skin\s*?\)\s*?;[\s\S]*}[\s\S]*.left-hand\s{/gi
  )
);
```

La variable `--penguin-skin` debe aplicarse a la propiedad `background` de la clase `left-hand`.

```js
assert(
  code.match(
    /.left-hand\s*?{[\s\S]*background\s*?:\s*?var\s*?\(\s*?--penguin-skin\s*?\)\s*?;[\s\S]*}/gi
  )
);
```
