Try some code like

Sub AAA()
Dim MaxWidth As Double
Dim R As Range
Dim RR As Range

Set RR = Range("A1:K10")
For Each R In RR
If R.ColumnWidth MaxWidth Then
MaxWidth = R.ColumnWidth
End If
Next R
RR.EntireColumn.ColumnWidth = MaxWidth
End Sub

Your posted range has only one column. For columns A-Z, try:

Sub demo()
Dim cw As Integer, i As Integer, wdth As Integer
cv = 0
For i = 1 To 26
wdth = Columns(i).ColumnWidth
If wdth cw Then
cw = wdth
End If
Next
Columns("A:Z").ColumnWidth = cw
End Sub

How can you do that?

With great difficulty.

A1:A20 is a single column.
