Is there a way I can specify the margin of a <td>
so that the width of automatically adjusts to make the table as wide as its parent (width: 100%;)?
How can I make the width of a to auto?

The title and body of your question do not match. The title asks about setting the width of a table cell to auto (whatever that means), whereas the body asks something about setting the margin of a table cell (which doesn't exist) so the width of the table is as wide as its parent. The current proposed duplicate answers the title question.

By creating a table in HTML for example like:
<table>
<thead>
<tr>
<td>Header</td>
<td class="smallCell">Small Fit</td>
<td>Header</td>
</tr>
</thead>
and for adjusting the width with CSS do add like:
table
{
width: 100%;
border-collapse: collapse;
}
//enter according to the size requirement
