Center child divs inside parent div

Question

I have a parent div that must stay at 100% with 3 child divs inside. I need to center the 3 child divs, but don\'t know how.

Answer 1

Try using display: inline-block and text-align: center

.parent {
    width: 100%;
    border: 1px solid blue;
    text-align: center;
}

.child {
    display: inline-block;  
    border: 1px solid red;
    margin: 2px;
}
