Line break in html table

I have a fiddle which I have replicated from a particular design.

The section of the screenshot I have attached below in the problem statement.

Problem Statement:

I am wondering what changes I should make in the fiddle so that I am able to give the line break between the following lines as shown in the screenshot which is the present in the fiddle as well.

The snippets of HTML codes which I have used in the fiddle for the above lines are:

  <tr>
    <td style="padding-bottom: 3%;text-align:right;">when:</td>
    <td style="padding-bottom: 3%;padding-left: 10%;">March 28/18 @ 7:00pm to March 30/18 @ 7:00pm</td>
  </tr>

I know this question has been answered but here is an alternative way this can be approached.

Note: I have added to your code to show an example of before an after.

Here is a fiddle of the same code if you need it.

<html>
<body>


<p style="font-size:20px;margin-left:22%;color:#55BEC7;"> hi XYZ, </p>

<!-- new way -->
<table style="width:100%;">
 <tbody> 
  <tr>
    <td>
        <table style="width:100%;">
         <tbody> 
          <tr>
           <td width="50%" align="right" style="font-family:Arial; font-size:12px;color:#000000;;padding:0px 20px;">type </td>
           <td width="50%" style="font-family:Arial; font-size:12px;color:#000000;text-align:left;padding:0px 10px;">availability check request</td>
	        </tr>
           
          <tr>
           <td width="50%" align="right" style="font-family:Arial; font-size:12px;color:#000000;;padding:0px 20px;">type </td>
           <td width="50%" style="font-family:Arial; font-size:12px;color:#000000;text-align:left;padding:0px 10px;">availability check request</td>
	        </tr>
           
          <tr>
           <td width="50%" align="right" style="font-family:Arial; font-size:12px;color:#000000;;padding:0px 20px;">type </td>
           <td width="50%" style="font-family:Arial; font-size:12px;color:#000000;text-align:left;padding:0px 10px;">availability check request</td>
	        </tr>
         </tbody>
        </table>
    </td>
	  </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>
<!-- new way -->

<table style="width:100%;display: flex;
  justify-content: center;">
  
 <tbody style="font-size:20px;padding-left: 15%;">

    <td style="padding-bottom: 3%;padding-left: 10%;">$250.00</td>

  <tr>

    <td style="padding-bottom: 3%;padding-left: 10%;">chainsaw</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>

Here is what I have done:

Add line-break class to the specified <td>

You can use word-wrap: break-word; to multiline text in a div. word-wrap works based on the width of the div.

.line-break {
  word-wrap: break-word;
  width: 300px;
}

<html>
<body>


<p style="font-size:20px;margin-left:22%;color:#55BEC7;"> hi XYZ, </p>

<table style="width:100%;display: flex;
  justify-content: center;">
  
 <tbody style="font-size:20px;padding-left: 15%;"> 
  <tr>
    <td style="padding-bottom: 3%;text-align:right;">type:</td>
	<td style="padding-bottom: 3%;padding-left: 10%;">availability check request</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td style="padding-bottom: 3%;text-align:right;">estimated total:</td>
    <td style="padding-bottom: 3%;padding-left: 10%;">$250.00</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td style="padding-bottom: 3%;text-align:right;">what</td>
    <td style="padding-bottom: 3%;padding-left: 10%;">chainsaw</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td style="padding-bottom: 3%;text-align:right;">how many</td>
    <td style="padding-bottom: 3%;padding-left: 10%;">2</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td style="padding-bottom: 3%;text-align:right;">when:</td>
    <td style="padding-bottom: 3%;padding-left: 10%;" class="line-break">March 28/18 @ 7:00pm to March 30/18 @ 7:00pm</td>
  </tr>
  <tr>
    <td style="padding-bottom: 3%;text-align:right;">who:</td>
    <td style="padding-bottom: 3%;padding-left: 10%;color:#FF8D58;">John s</td>
  </tr>
  </tbody>
</table>



<h2 style="text-align:center;color:#484848;margin-top:2.5%;margin-bottom:5%;">steps to earn your money:</h2>
