I highly recommend using Bootstrap. Faster development. Also the documentation is very complete. http://getbootstrap.com/getting-started/

As for your question, you have this example:

/*Anything outside of media queries is for MOBILE
  This is Mobile first approach.
*/

/* Small devices (tablets, 768px and up) */
@media (min-width: 768px) { ... }

/* Medium devices (desktops, 992px and up) */
@media (min-width: 992px) { ... }

/* Large devices (large desktops, 1200px and up) */
@media (min-width: 1200px) { ... }
