CSS- Responsive full width grid of square divs

I'm trying to create a grid of square divs. This is what I tried:

HTML:

<div>A</div>
<div>B</div>
<div>C</div>

CSS:

div{
    width:50vw;
    height:50vw;
    display:inline;
    float:left;
}

(JSFiddle)

But instead of getting two columns, the divs display one below the other..

Does anyone know how to solve this? Thanks.

Don't use 50vw as the scrollbar is not included in the calculations. Use 50% instead.

There is a very slight difference but it's one that your users are unlikely to notice.

* {
  -webkit-box-sizing: border-box;
  -moz-box-sizing: border-box;
  box-sizing: border-box;
}
div {
  width: 50%;
  height: 50vw;
  float: left;
}
#a {
  background-color: red;
}
#b {
  background-color: blue;
}
#c {
  background-color: green;
}
#d {
  background-color: yellow;
}
<div id="a">A</div>
<div id="b">B</div>
<div id="c">C</div>
<div id="d">D</div>
