Column Width with Tabu Package
How can I set particular column widths in tabu? Here's what I have at the moment
{tabulinesep=1.2mm
begin{tabu}{|X|X|X|X|}
hline
textbf{Question} & textbf{Solution} & textbf{Partial Marks} & textbf{Guidance} \
hline
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Q1 Equation of a Line
1a & $frac{1}{2}$ & A1 & cao \
hline
1b & $y-frac{1}{3}x+4=0$ & A2 & cao \
hline
%%%%%%%%%%%%%%% Q2 Indices
2 & $frac{3^{2x}}{3^{2y}}=3^{2x+4}$ & M1 & Converts $9^x$ to $3^{kx}$ where $k$ is an integer \
hline
which gives me this

I want to fix the size of the left-hand column and third column smaller than they currently are, while ideally leaving the other two alone. Any advice would be appreciated, thanks.

Usingtabuis not a good idea. It is unmaintained and has unfixed issues: github.com/tabu-fixed/tabu#not-yet-handled
