Answer 2

Yeah, let's be stupid and make this difficult. make lots of trips.

Here's the one-trip answer. Take both buckets to the well. Fill the 2ltr bucket. Pour it into the 3 ltr bucket. Refill the 2ltr bucket.

Now pour the contents of both buckets into the 5 ltr bucket. That's 2+2=4.

Answer 3

Fill the 5l bucket then pour it into the 3l bucket leaving 2l in the 5l container.Now dump out the 3l container and pour the 2l from the 5l container in leaving you with a 3l container having 2l of water and an empty 5l container. Now fill the 5l container again. Then take the 5l container and fill the reat of the 3l container leaving you with 4l in the 5 l container.

Answer 4

fill the 3, then empty it into the 5, fill 3 again, pour in 5 till 5 is full, leaving one in the 3, pour out 5, fill 5 with 1 remaining in 3, the refill 3 complete and add to 5 = 4

Answer 5

Fill the three liter bucket with water and put it inside the five liter bucket. Then fill the five liter bucket until it is full. Remove the three liter bucket and the remaining water in the five liter bucket will be two liters. Mark the five liter bucket where the two liters comes to and then empty your three liter bucket and pour the two liters into it. Fill your five liter bucket to the mark you just made and then pour the two liters from your three liter bucket and you will have four liters.

Answer 6

1.) Fill the 3L bucket and dump the water into the empty 5L bucket.

2.) Fill the 3L bucket again and fill the 5L bucket to the top, leaving one Liter of water in the 3L bucket.

3.) Dump out the 5L bucket, leaving it empty.

4.) Dump the one liter of water in the 3L bucket into the 5L bucket.

5.) Fill the 3L bucket again and dump it into the 5L bucket, giving you 4 liters of water in the 5L bucket.

Answer 7

How do you fill up the 5L bucket with exactly 4L of water?
Easy...

First, fill-up the 3L bucket with water and transfer its contents to the 5L bucket.
3L bucket = 0 liters of water
5L bucket = 3 liters of water

Again, fill-up the 3L bucket and transfer the water to the 5L bucket until it is full. The remaining water in the smaller bucket is approximately 1 liter.
3L bucket = 1 liter of water
5L bucket = 5 liters of water

Empty the 5L bucket and pour in the contents of the 3L bucket.
3L bucket = 0 liters of water
5L bucket = 1 liter of water

Finally, fill-up the 3L bucket with water and transfer its contents to the 5L bucket.
3L bucket = 0 liters of water
5L bucket = 4 liters of water!!!
