File Share Witness location

We have a 4 node availability group with 3 node on the primary data center and one node on the secondary data center.

We want to add a file share witness and since we dont have a third data center and not allowed to go with cloud witness, where would the file share witness be ? At the primary or secondary.

Will putting on the secondary helps as the majority of the nodes are in the primary data center
