Container 1 has 174 lires of oil, Container 2 has 258 litres of oil. Sam pours entire contents of container 1 into smaller jars, so that the oil completely fills the jars and there is no oil left. He also pours the entire contents of container 2 into the same size jars so that there is no oil left. What can the maximum size of the smaller jars be?

The maximum size of the smaller jars is 6 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Container 1=174 liters of oil

Container 2=258 liters of oil

Same pours the entire content of container one and container 2 into the same number of smaller jars

The maximum size of the smaller jar can be found by finding the highest common factor of 174 and 258

Factors of 174=1,2,3,6,29

Factors of 258=1,2,3,6,43

Common factors of 174 and 258=1,2,3 and 6

Highest common factor=6

Therefore,

The maximum size of the smaller jars is 6 liters
