How can you resize an img using css, specifically flexbox

Question

I'm trying to place 3 images on the same row using flexbox. I also want to change the size of the first image as it is too big. However, my CSS rules are not being applied properly. I have the images each inside their own div with a class of flex-item-3 to indicate that they are flex items inside my flex container. However, I can't seem to override the default CSS rules.

* {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  box-sizing: border-box;
}

html,
body {
  font-family: 'Lato', 'sans-serif', 'arial';
  color: #fff;
  font-size: 15px;
  font-weight: 300;
  text-transform: uppercase;
  text-rendering: optimizeLegibility;
}

.wrapper {
  max-width: 100%;
  margin: 0 auto;
}

section {
  padding: 80px 0;
}

h2 {
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
}

.flex {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: space-between;
  background-image: linear-gradient(rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.6), rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.6)), url("img/truck.jpg");
  background-size: cover;
  background-position: center;
}

.flex-item {
  padding-top: 15px;
  height: 100vh;
}

.item1 {
  padding-top: 0;
  padding-left: 30px;
}

.logo {
  height: 90px;
}

.main-nav ul {
  display: flex;
  margin: 0;
  padding: 0;
  list-style: none;
}

.main-nav a {
  color: white;
  padding: 1rem;
  text-decoration: none;
}

.main-nav a:hover {
  color: orange;
}

.hero {
  position: absolute;
  top: 50%;
  left: 25%;
  transform: translate(-50%, -50%);
}

.hero a {
  text-decoration: none;
  color: white;
  display: block;
  margin: 10px;
  padding: 10px;
  border-radius: 10px;
}

.btn {
  background-color: orange;
}

.flex2 {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  align-items: center;
}

.flex-item-2 {
  color: #312c2c;
  width: 100%;
  text-align: center;
}

.second-flex-item p {
  margin-top: 20px;
  margin-bottom: 40px;
  font-size: 19px;
  color: #312c2c;
}

.second-flex-item h2 {
  font-weight: 900;
  font-size: 25px;
}

.flex-3 {
  display: flex;
  justify-content: center;
  max-width: 100%;
}

.flex-3-items {
  display: flex;
  width: 100%;
  height: auto;
}

.flex-3-item img { max-width:100%; } should do the trick.

Also, look at this: Auto Resize Image in CSS FlexBox Layout and keeping Aspect Ratio?
