That's not entirely true. Specificity is also a key factor. For example:
<style type="text/css">
#green { color: green }
#green2 { color: green }
.red { color: red }
</style>
<p id="green" class="red">
I am green.
</p>
The ID selector is more specific than the class selector, so gets applied
to the paragraph.
