use Linear Layouts with weight.which will make it simple

check docs

Layouts

or with just LinearLayout

<LinearLayout
           android:id="@+id/linearLayout5" 
           android:layout_width= "fill_parent"
           android:orientation="horizontal"
           android:layout_gravity="center"
          >
 <TextView
    android:layout_width="wrap_content"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:orientation="horizontal"
    android:text="@string/fractions" />
           <RadioGroup
               android:id="@+id/radioGroup1"
               android:layout_width="wrap_content"
               android:layout_height="wrap_content"
               android:orientation="horizontal" >

               <RadioButton
        android:id="@+id/fraction_true"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:checked="true"
        android:paddingRight="15dip"
        android:gravity="center"
        android:layout_gravity="center"
        android:text="lalalal" />

    <RadioButton
        android:id="@+id/fraction_false"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:paddingRight="15dip"
        android:gravity="center" 
        android:layout_gravity="center"

Seems like a case for an horizontal linear layout.

<LinearLayout
    android:orientation="horizontal"
    android:layout_width="fill_parent"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:gravity="center_vertical">

    <TextView
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:orientation="horizontal"
        android:text="lalalal" />

    <RadioGroup
        android:id="@+id/fractions"
        android:layout_width="wrap_content"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:orientation="horizontal" >

        <RadioButton
            android:id="@+id/fraction_true"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:checked="true"
            android:paddingRight="15dip"
            android:text="lalalal" />

        <RadioButton
            android:id="@+id/fraction_false"
            android:layout_width="wrap_content"
            android:layout_height="wrap_content"
            android:paddingRight="15dip"
            android:text="lalalal" />
    </RadioGroup>

</LinearLayout>
