This is because both min-width and max-width are used to set the boundaries of a container's width.
Min-width sets the minimum width of the container and ensures that it will always be at least that wide, even if the content inside is smaller.
On the other hand, max-width sets the maximum width of the container and ensures that it will never be wider than that, even if the content inside is larger.
So, if both min-width and max-width are used on the same container, they will set the boundaries of its width, and they cannot override each other.
For example, if min-width is set to 500px and max-width is set to 600px, then the container will have a width of at least 500px but will never exceed 600px, regardless of the browser or screen size.
