6,466 PointsIf you could show a copy of your code here that would be helpful and you could get a more specific answer.
Generally speaking, you want to target the div classes together you want and assign a width so they will both fit in the parent container.
.divone, .divtwo { width: 48%; }
Then select each div individually and float it to either the left or the right side.
.divone { float: right; }
.divtwo { float: left; }
In order to make sure your div height doesn't collapse, you need to clear your floats-the best method is to use clearfix. Put this into your CSS style sheet:
.group:after { content: ""; display: table; clear: both; }
Then return to your HTML and give the parent element of the floated columns the class 'group'. You can use whatever name you want (.floatything:after {....etc) but group is the common name used.
Good luck!
