How do I copy file from a current open file?

Hello!

I am studying a course about computers using unix commands and I'm wondering how I can copy files from a file when I am on a different one in coding?

The question says what command copies the file fickur that is in the catalogue fickur to the catalogue digital?

current open catalogue is digital

Image

The answer I got there was wrong I only know what command to use if the current catalogue was klockor because then I could use the command (cp fickur/fickur armbandsur/digital) but what will the commands be if I'm doing it from digital?

Thanks in advance! I hope you can help me because I have no one else that can >.<
