Say we have two floated list items with a width of 45% each. Which of the following declarations, if applied to the list items, will perfectly fill the remainder of the parent element’s width?

Since you have filled 90% of the width with 2 list items that means you have 10% width left to fill up.

First thing that pops to mind is

margin-left: 2,5%;
margin-right: 2,5%;

Both list item's margins will add up to 10% exactly and that should be it!
