1) First fill the 3 litre bottle full and then empty that into the 5 litre bottle. That leaves still 2 litres empty space in that bottle.

2) Again take the full 3 litres bottle and fill the empty space of the 5 litre bottle. That means 1 litre is left in the 3 litre bottle.

3) Now empty the 5 liter bottle and fill the 1 litre from the 3 litre bottle.

4) Fill the 3 litre bottle fully and transfer that to the 5 litre bottle. We have 4 litres in that bottle now.
