place 3 figures in a row in two column format

Question

Hi i am usng two column format and i want to place three figures i a row like this figure and every figure should have separate caption

\documentclass[conference]{IEEEtran}
    \IEEEoverridecommandlockouts
    \usepackage{cite}
    \usepackage{amsmath,amssymb,amsfonts}
    \usepackage{algorithmic}
    \usepackage{graphicx}
    \usepackage{textcomp}
    \usepackage{xcolor}
    \usepackage{subfig}
    \usepackage[english]{babel}
    \usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
    \usepackage{makecell}%
    %table
    \usepackage[margin=1in]{geometry}
    \usepackage{tabularx,booktabs}
    \newcolumntype{Y}{>{\centering\arraybackslash}X}
    \usepackage{blindtext}
    \usepackage{times}
    %\usepackage[linesnumbered,ruled,vlined]{algorithm2e}
    \usepackage{algorithm} 
    %\usepackage{algpseudocode} 
     \usepackage{algorithmic}
\makeatletter
\newcommand{\removelatexerror}{\let\@latex@error\@gobble}
\makeatother

%\documentclass{IEEEtran}

\usepackage[english]{babel}
\usepackage[utf8]{inputenc}
\def\BibTeX{{\rm B\kern-.05em{\sc i\kern-.025em b}\kern-.08em
    T\kern-.1667em\lower.7ex\hbox{E}\kern-.125emX}}

\begin{document}
 \begin{figure}
\begin{minipage}[t]{0.475\columnwidth}
{\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{Fig9.PNG}}
  \caption{ssssssss}
  \label{Fig9}
\end{minipage}\hfill % maximize horizontal separation
\begin{minipage}[t]{0.475\columnwidth}
{\includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{Fig10.PNG}}
  \caption{vvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvvv}
  \label{Fig10}
\end{minipage}
\end{figure}

i also tried this code but it didnt place figures equal in size

\begin{figure*}
\floatsetup{floatrowsep=Qquad}
\begin{floatrow}
\ffigbox[\FBwidth]{\caption{bbbbb}\label{bbb}}{\includegraphics[scale=0.4]{aaa.png}}
\ffigbox[\FBwidth]{\caption{bbb}\label{Hedgehog}}{\includegraphics[scale=0.4]{aaa.png}}
\ffigbox[\FBwidth]{\caption{cccc}\label{Ernst}}{\includegraphics[scale=0.4]{aaa.png}}
\end{floatrow}
\end{figure*}

And the "triple figure" should be within a single column, or span both columns? — Werner, Oct 06 '21 at 16:57

There is nothing in LaTeX that forbids you to place multiple \captions in a single figure or figure* environment.

You can nest minipages inside your float to get the correct width for your captions.

\documentclass[twocolumn]{article}
\usepackage[]{graphicx}
\usepackage{duckuments} % <- dummy content
\begin{document}
\begin{figure}
  \begin{minipage}[t]{.3\linewidth}
    \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{example-image-duck}%
    \caption{This is a duck}%
  \end{minipage}\hfil
  \begin{minipage}[t]{.3\linewidth}
    \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{example-image-duck}%
    \caption{This is another duck}%
  \end{minipage}\hfil
  \begin{minipage}[t]{.3\linewidth}
    \includegraphics[width=\linewidth]{example-image-duck}%
    \caption{But then the ducks arrived}%
  \end{minipage}%
\end{figure}
\duckument
\end{document}

@user12 then don't use floatrow, my document body works for your preamble you posted in your question (yes, I've tested it). – Skillmon Oct 06 '21 at 17:34
