Solution :

HTML Code:

<!DOCTYPE html><!-- Declaration specifying the document type -->
<html><!-- Opening tag for the root element of the HTML document -->
<head><!-- Opening tag for the document's header section -->
<meta charset="utf-8"><!-- Metadata tag specifying the character encoding of the document -->
<title>How to specify the width of an iframe element</title><!-- Title of the HTML document -->
</head><!-- Closing tag for the document's header section -->
<body><!-- Opening tag for the document's body section -->
<iframe src ="https://www.w3resource.com/html-css-exercise/basic/solution/em-answer.html" width="150%" hight="60"><!-- Inline frame element specifying the URL of the document to embed and its width -->
</iframe><!-- Closing tag for the iframe element -->
</body><!-- Closing tag for the document's body section -->
</html><!-- Closing tag for the root element of the HTML document -->

Explanation:

This HTML code demonstrates how to specify the width of an iframe element to display content from an external source within the HTML document.
The <iframe> element is used to embed content from another HTML document or website. In this case, its src attribute specifies the URL of the external content.
The width attribute sets the width of the iframe. In this example, it is set to "150%", which means the iframe's width will be 150% of the width of its container.
However, there is a typo in the code where "hight" should be corrected to "height" for the height attribute.
The height attribute is intended to specify the height of the iframe, but it is misspelled as "hight".
