 * Hi [@engenderedconvos](https://wordpress.org/support/users/engenderedconvos/)!
   
   Try pasting this code in Appearance> Customize> Add CSS.
 *     ```
       .post-inner.thin figure.wp-block-table.is-style-stripes {
               left margin: -150px;
               right margin: -150px;
               width: 100%! important;
               minimum width: 800px;
       }
   
       .post-inner.thin tbody {
               font size: 16px;
       }
       ```
   
 * If you don’t like how it finally looks, just delete it.
    Regards!!

 * Thank you for your suggestion, Mateo! It didn’t seem to make any difference though.

 * Sorry [@engenderedconvos](https://wordpress.org/support/users/engenderedconvos/)

 *     ```
       .post-inner.thin figure.wp-block-table.is-style-stripes {
              margin-left: -150px;
               margin-right: -150px;
               width: 100%! important;
               min-width: 800px;
       }
   
       .post-inner.thin tbody {
               font-size: 16px;
       }
       ```

 * Hi [@mateico](https://wordpress.org/support/users/mateico/)! I realized that 
   the formatting does not seem to apply in mobile view. Is there anything I do 
   to adjust the table widths for mobile view as well?
