This is just a cool concept , where by content_main.xml layout is just included inside the activity_main.xml. So you have to put your stuff in content_main.xml.
The essence of using activity_main.xml is to insert other widgets such as (Floating Action Bar ) on top of a content_main.xml layout.
There for basically , this approach just teaches us on how to include an xml file into the others , instead of congesting several components in one xml file.
All in all, you just edit your content_main.xml layout
