Post Content width=70% How do I change to 100%? Custom CSS not applying.

Hello,
I am running a new installation of generatepress and for some reason the default width for content is set at 70% see Image 1. 
And I can't find where to edit this anywhere in customize appearance.
Using site console I found the following div id='primary' .site-content .content-area width=70% which is the only thing I can find that seems to be causing it. however custom CSS does nothing (I changed to 100% in the Customize > Additional CSS and still the same issue) see image 2
Hi there,
check the Customizer > Layout > Sidebars - looks like you need to disable the sidebar for the posts.
Thank you! Is there a way to control width of only the content so its 800px while keeping the header and footer at 1000?
Hi Mike,
You can use a layout element to set the content container to 800px, then select posts > all posts as the location:

Thanks Ying, I just used custom css after applying David's info to remove sidebars and it worked!
Nice :)
Glad it works for your now!
