I have a div that stretches longer than 100%. I am trying to create a container div around it but when I set the margin left and right to 50% the container div doesn't even seem to stretch all the way. It sort of works for the smaller div but it doesn't work for the longer div.
The margin-left seems to work fine but on the right side of the first div there is no margin.

<body>
<div style="margin: 50px 50px; padding-right: 40px;">
<div style="white-space: nowrap; font-size: 12px;font-weight: 600;text-transform: uppercase;color: #7a7a7a;background: #dedede;border-radius: 3px 3px 0px 0px;font-family:;display: inline-block;min-width: 100%;">
<div style="display: flex; flex-wrap: nowrap">
<div>oneon e saf </div>
<div> </div>
<div style="width: 10px; margin: 0 100px; white-space: normal;">This is a div heheheh</div>

By default, flex items will all try to fit onto one line. You can change that and allow the items to wrap as needed with this property.
Try to use flex-wrap: wrap source: https://css-tricks.com/snippets/css/a-guide-to-flexbox/
