Linear layout split half to screen-CodePudding

I am using the adapter to show data to the screen and I am using a grid layout.

The single grid consists of a linear layout with two text views one to show the heading and one to show the body. How can I split that to use half-width of the screen and wrap the content to height. So can both can use equal screen.

Actually, I don't want to split both text views half and half, I want two different grids to consume half and half screen. You can see here what I want to say i want to center gridview

Here is My XML


    <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
    android:layout_width="100dp"
    android:layout_marginTop="70dp"
    android:layout_height="wrap_content"
    android:orientation="vertical">


    <TextView
        android:id="@ id/text_title_view"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_margin="10dp"
        android:background="@color/white"
        android:gravity="start"
        android:textColor="@color/black"
        android:fontFamily="@font/futuraheavyfont"
        android:textSize="26sp"
        android:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light"
        android:text="Title" />

    <TextView
        android:id="@ id/text_text_view"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:layout_margin="10dp"
        android:fontFamily="@font/futuramediumbt"
        android:textSize="20sp"
        android:gravity="start"
        android:background="@color/white"
        android:theme="@style/ThemeOverlay.AppCompat.Light"
        android:text="Body will go here" />
</LinearLayout>
