A selector expression is a selector or a combination of selectors.

[0] [0] [0] [0] [0]
!important style="" id
selector
class,
attribute,
psuedo
class
selectors
type
selector
and
psuedo
element

For every selector expression we get a five digit priority value from the above diagram. Larger values override smaller values. Same values override based on top to bottom(last selector expression overrides previous ones).
