Explanation:

This HTML document demonstrates how to use the font-stretch property to adjust the width of the text in division elements.
Comments are added to both HTML and CSS to explain each section of the code.
In the CSS <style> block, two CSS rules are defined: one for the element with ID div1 and another for the element with ID div2.
The font-stretch property is used to specify the width of the text. Setting it to condensed makes the text narrower, while setting it to expanded makes the text wider.
