Center Frame in Main Window - Tkinter

How can I achieve a result like this in python Tkinter? I want a window with a main frame whose width takes up 50% of the window's width and, if need be, two side frames of 25% width each.

Here's the simplified code:

from tkinter import *

root = Tk()
root.geometry("100x100")

f1 = Frame(root,bg="white",width=root.winfo_width()//4)
f1.pack()
main = Frame(root,bg="black",width=root.winfo_width()//2)
main.pack()
f2 = Frame(root,bg="white",width=root.winfo_width()//4)
f2.pack()

Why are the frames not showing? Please help!

Bonus point if you can do away with the two side frames

It can be achieved by using .place():

from tkinter import *

root = Tk()
root.geometry("100x100")

main = Frame(root,bg="black")
main.place(relx=0.5, rely=0.5, relwidth=0.5, relheight=1, anchor="c")

root.mainloop()
