Can someone help me understand why when I add padding to the "header div," the content overflows the div? For instance, if I set it to 60%, instead of limiting to within the div, it takes up 60% of the entire page. I thought that % would be applied based on the parent's height/width. Any explanations would be appreciated! Thank you :) check out this image for reference
*{
margin: 0;
text-decoration: none;

background-image: url("../img/stock-1.jpeg");
background-position: 50% 25%;
min-height: 650px;
height: 60vh;
}
header nav{
display: flex;
justify-content: space-between;
height: 60px;
}

margin-left: 20px;
}
