The size of the gap between images with margin in %

Hello,

I was wondering one thing. When you make a margin 2.5% to the right and left and you have floating: left; activated and there is the photos on the row. Why is the gap smaller in between them than it is on the other sides of them. It should be 5% in between the photos and 2.5% at the other sides. 5% > 2.5 % but the gap to the other sides with 2.5% is bigger you can see that on the video https://teamtreehouse.com/library/how-to-make-a-website/styling-web-pages-and-navigation/style-the-portfolio why is that so?

I believe there's 5% padding (left/right) on the the wrapper div containing the image gallery.
