 * I am using the Twenty Eleven theme and editing on a child theme.
 * Check out this web page and decrease the width of your browser.
    [http://investorweather.com/aapl/](http://investorweather.com/aapl/)
 * Notice the white margins on the left and right on the page.
    I want to decrease
   those by about 75% to have more room for content.
 * What in this code do I need to change to make that happen
 *     ```
       #page {
       	margin: 2em auto;
       	max-width: none;
       }
       #branding hgroup {
       	margin: 0 7.6%;
       }
       #access div {
       	margin: 0 7.6%;
       }
       #primary {
       	float: left;
       	margin: 0 -26.4% 0 0;
       	width: 100%;
       }
       #content {
       	margin: 0 34% 0 7.6%;
       	width: 60%
       }
       #secondary {
       	float: right;
       	margin-right: 7.6%;
       	width: 18.8%;
       }
       ```
   
 * I have been trying for hours and I am literally losing hair! Your help will be
   greatly appreciated.
 * Thanks

 * Try using Firefox with the [Firebug add-on](http://getfirebug.com/) for this 
   kind of CSS troubleshooting. Or use whatever developer tool is available in your
   web browser.
