I need help to complete a part of my PAP, perhaps one of the most important parts, photo album, only I have a big problem with divisions, Oops, I walk the wheel of error and nothing. I have here an example of my code, but the problem is explicit. I can’t get her to div Increase exterior by adding other Divs inside.

div.gallery {
  margin: 5px;
  border: 1px solid #ccc;
  float: left;
  width: 180px;
}

div.gallery:hover {
  border: 1px solid #777;
}

div.gallery img {
  width: 100%;
  height: auto;
  /*Background color just for example*/
  background-color: yellow;
}

div.desc {
  padding: 15px;
  text-align: center;
  /*Background color just for example*/
  background-color: yellow;
}

<div style="color: #ddd;background-color:#282E34;text-align:center;padding:50px 80px;text-align: justify">
  <h3 style="text-align:center;color: #ddd">ALBUM</h3>

Solved, just add float in the main div.

div.gallery {
  margin: 5px;
  border: 1px solid #ccc;
  float: left;
  width: 180px;
}

div.gallery:hover {
  border: 1px solid #777;
}

div.gallery img {
  width: 100%;
  height: auto;
  /*Background color just for example*/
  background-color: yellow;
}

div.desc {
  padding: 15px;
  text-align: center;
  /*Background color just for example*/
  background-color: yellow;
}

<div style="color: #ddd;float:left;background-color:#282E34;text-align:center;padding:50px 80px;text-align: justify">
  <h3 style="text-align:center;color: #ddd">ALBUM</h3>

You can settle with the float: left;, as indicated by @Mateusveloso, or, if you do not want/can do so, with a overflow: auto;.

div.gallery {
  margin: 5px;
  border: 1px solid #ccc;
  float: left;
  width: 180px;
}

div.gallery:hover {
  border: 1px solid #777;
}

div.gallery img {
  width: 100%;
  height: auto;
  /*Background color just for example*/
  background-color: yellow;
}

div.desc {
  padding: 15px;
  text-align: center;
  /*Background color just for example*/
  background-color: yellow;
}

<div style="color: #ddd;overflow:auto;background-color:#282E34;text-align:center;padding:50px 80px;text-align: justify">
  <h3 style="text-align:center;color: #ddd">ALBUM</h3>
