How can I select all the td elements in the last row of the first table on the webpage?

What happens is the whole table gets affected if I combine it with tr tag using the "," selector but if I code them separately then all the tables last rows get affected.

I just don't know how to combine table and tr correctly

Is this you wanted?

table:nth-child(1) tr:last-child td {
  background-color: green;   
}

Or:

table:first-child tr:last-child td {
  background-color: green;
}

Use table:nth-child(1) for selecting only the first table itself. And then select the last row by tr:nth-last-child(1).

Try this:

table:nth-child(1) tr:nth-last-child(1) {
  color: red;
}
<table>
<tr>
<th>Firstname</th>
<th>Lastname</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Peter</td>
<td>Griffin</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Lois</td>
<td>Griffin</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>John</td>
<td>Wade</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Liam</td>
<td>Mike</td>
</tr>
</table>

<table>
<tr>
<th>Firstname</th>
<th>Lastname</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Peter</td>
<td>Griffin</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Lois</td>
<td>Griffin</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>John</td>
<td>Wade</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Liam</td>
<td>Mike</td>
</tr>
</table>

<table>
<tr>
<th>Firstname</th>
<th>Lastname</th>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Peter</td>
<td>Griffin</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Lois</td>
<td>Griffin</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>John</td>
<td>Wade</td>
</tr>
<tr>
<td>Liam</td>
<td>Mike</td>
</tr>
</table>
