The correct answer would be:

"I'll place the crutches about 6 inches to each side."

This is called tripod position. In order to achieve a correct position, one must in a certain body position. Crutches should be six inches apart from both sides. Crutches should be between one and two inches below one’s armpits, while a person is standing straight, while handgrips should be in line with one’s hips.
