Answer:
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
