Answer:

60 litres

Step-by-step explanation:

To obtain the greatest volume of the tin, we calculate the highest common factor of both 120 and 80

Factors of :

80 : 1, 2, 4, 5, 8, 10, 16, 20, 40, 80

120 : 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 15, 20, 24, 30, 40, 60, 120

The highest common factor is 60.

Hence, the greatest volume of the tin would be 60 litres
