The `flex-grow` factor values of all the sibling flex items are added together. The flex container's positive free space, if any, is then divided by that total. The main size of each flex item with a `flex-grow` value greater than `0` will grow by this quotient multiplied by its own growth factor. -For example, if four `100px` flex items are in a `700px` container and the flex items have `flex-grow` factors of `0`, `1`, `2`, and `3`, respectively, the total main size of the four items is `400px`, meaning there is `300px` of positive free space to be distributed. There are a total of 6 grow factors (`3 + 2 + 1`), therefore each grow factor is equal to `50px` (`(300px / 6 )`. Each flex item is given an amount of positive free space equal to this amount multiplied by its `flex-grow` value — so `0`, `50px`, `100px`, and `150px` respectively. The total flex item sizes are therefore `100px`, `150px`, `200px`, and `250px` respectively. +For example, if four `100px` flex items are in a `700px` container and the flex items have `flex-grow` factors of `0`, `1`, `2`, and `3`, respectively, the total main size of the four items is `400px`, meaning there is `300px` of positive free space to be distributed.

Using the `flex` shorthand property is recommended to ensure all values are set.
