[Tex/LaTex] Make two tables the same size

tables

How do I make two tables with different the same size?

Here is my code:

\begin{table}[]
\resizebox{\columnwidth}{!}{%

I tried solving it with \adjustbox but this didn't help

I would build your tables more like the ones below. I removed the first head row as it seems redundant to the \caption.

\documentclass[]{article}

\usepackage{booktabs}
\usepackage{tabularx}
\usepackage{siunitx}

\newcolumntype{x}[1]{>{\hsize=#1\hsize\linewidth=\hsize}X}

\begin{document}
\begingroup
\small
\noindent
\tabcolsep=.7\tabcolsep
\begin{tabularx}{\linewidth}{ccc>{\raggedright\arraybackslash}x{.7}x{1.3}}
  \toprule
  Reference & Year & Gene & Method
    & Qualitative features associated with gene mutations \\
  \midrule
  \cite{carillo_table}   & 2012 & IDH1 & Logistic Regression
    & Frontal lobe, les enhancement, smaller size \\
  \cite{paldor_table}    & 2016 & IDH1 & Chi-square test
    & Frontal Lobe \\
  \cite{aghi_table}      & 2005 & EGFR & Student t-test 
    & Increased edema-enhancing tumor ratio; ill-defined T2 margins \\
  \cite{ellingson_table} & 2013 & EGFR & Fisher's exact test
    & Left temporal lobe \\  
  \cite{young_table}     & 2013 & EGFR & Wilcoxon signed-rank test
    & Lower ADC \\
  \cite{gupta_table}     & 2015 & EGFR & Wilcoxon signed-rank test
    & Increased cerebral blood volume, decreased peak signal recovery \\
  \bottomrule
\end{tabularx}
\begin{tabular}{cccclS[table-format=1.3]}
  \toprule
  Reference & Year & Gene & Radiomics features & Classifier & {Accuracy} \\
  \midrule

    & 0.89 \\
  \cite{levner_table}        & 2009 & MGMT & SOS      & Neural Network
    & 0.877 \\
  \cite{korfiatis_table}     & 2016 & MGMT & SOS      & SVM, Random Forest
    & \\
  \cite{kickingereder_table} & 2016 & EGFR & FOS      &
    & 0.63 \\
  \bottomrule
\end{tabular}
\endgroup
\end{document}

As you can see, the second tabular is slightly smaller. I also left out the table environment, but that shouldn't change much. \tabcolsep=.7\tabcolsep reduces the separation between the columns to 70 %. The \noindent is not necessary inside of table. If the two tabulars end up in different table environments, you should use \small and \tabcolsep=.7\tabcolsep in both of them.

EDIT: One should mention, that the sum of all arguments to the x columns in one tabularx must total the number of x columns in that tabularx. So if you use 2 x columns, the sum must be 2.

[Tex/LaTex] How to set the same font size for all tables

1) If needed, do not scale the table, but simply reduce the font from \normalsize to standard smaller sizes: \small or \footnotesize but please do not go beyond that. Note that not only this produce consistent sizes, but also the appropriate glyphs in good fonts (for instance, a {\huge Q} will be quite different of a {\tiny Q} when scaled to the same size). BTW in tables 1 and 2 this is not needed, assuming default margins for an article (sorry, I do not have the ociamthesis class)

2) If that is not enough (tables 3 and 4) , or (may be better) alternatively try to gain horizontal space with a redesign of the table and/or adjust column widths and allow line breaks in cells. Use of p columns, m columns (array package) and tabularx and tabulary packages are very useful to adjust tables.

3) Finally not related with the problem, but avoid vertical lines and superfluous horizontal lines, use better horizontal lines (package booktabs) and try to align/format numeric with siunitx package. The MWE show also other minor tricks to have a better spacing in \pm with/without an explicit math environment (new column M). I move the captions before as most journal use this style, but obviously is optional. (The four tables are in the same float only for convenience of maintain the MWE in a single page.)

[Tex/LaTex] Two tables with the same number

You may achieve your typesetting objective by loading the caption package and by insering a \ContinuedFloat directive immediately after the second \begin{table}.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{caption} % for '\ContinuedFloat' directive
\begin{document}

\begin{table}[ht!]
\centering\caption{Basic Estimations}
\begin{tabular}{ccc} 1 & 2 & 3 \\ \end{tabular}
\end{table}

\begin{table}[h!]
\ContinuedFloat  %% <-- new
\centering\caption{Basic Estimations (continued)}
\begin{tabular}{ccc} 1 & 2 & 3 \\ \end{tabular}
\end{table}

\begin{table}[h!]
\centering\caption{Further Estimations}
\begin{tabular}{ccc} 1 & 2 & 3 \\ \end{tabular}
\end{table} 
\end{document}

Addendum to address the OP's follow-up query: A side-benefit of employing the \ContinuedFloat approach is that it's possible to create separate cross-references to the initial and to the continued part of a LaTeX table or figure. (As always, be sure to issue the \label instructions after the \caption instructions.) Let's assume that "Table 1" comes in two separate parts. If the labels are \label{tab:1} and \label{tab:1-cont}, one can create separate cross-referencing call-outs via \ref{tab:1} and \ref{tab:1-cont}. Both call-outs will be numbered "1"; to avoid any confusion among your readers, be sure to write something like In the initial part of Table \ref{tab:1} and in the continued part of Table \ref{tab:1}.

The following MWE (minimum working example) employs the hyperref and cleveref packages to make it easier to identify the LaTeX-generated cross-referencing call-outs.

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{caption} % for '\ContinuedFloat' directive
\usepackage[colorlinks,allcolors=blue]{hyperref}
\usepackage[noabbrev,nameinlink]{cleveref} 
\begin{document}
\noindent
Cross-references to the first part of \cref{tab:1}, to the continued 
part of \cref{tab:1-cont}, and to \cref{tab:2}.

\clearpage
\begin{table}
\centering\caption{Basic Estimations} \label{tab:1}
\begin{tabular}{ccc} 1 & 2 & 3 \\ \end{tabular}
\end{table}
\clearpage
\begin{table}
\ContinuedFloat
\centering\caption{Basic Estimations (continued)} \label{tab:1-cont}
\begin{tabular}{ccc} 1 & 2 & 3 \\ \end{tabular}
\end{table}
\clearpage
\begin{table}
\centering\caption{Further Estimations} \label{tab:2}
\begin{tabular}{ccc} 1 & 2 & 3 \\ \end{tabular}
\end{table}
\end{document}
