You have 2 buckets 🪣.
1 holds exactly 5 gallons.
1 holds exactly 3 gallons.
You have no other measuring devices but you have an unlimited amount of water.
How do you get exactly 4 gallons into the 5 gallon bucket?
Hint: There are 2 correct answers.
Fill both buckets halfway and then pour into the 5 gallon bucket.
That’s a new one. I guess that makes 3 correct answers.
1. Fill the 3 gallon bucket with water.
2. Pour the water from the 3 gallon bucket into the 5 gallon bucket.
3. Fill the 3 gallon bucket again with water.
4. Pour the water from the 3 gallon bucket into the 5 gallon bucket until it is full, leaving 1 gallon of water in the 3 gallon bucket.
5. Pour out the water from the 5 gallon bucket until it is empty.
6. Pour the 1 gallon of water from the 3 gallon bucket into the 5 gallon bucket.
7. Fill the 3 gallon bucket with water.
8. Pour the water from the 3 gallon bucket into the 5 gallon bucket until it is full, which will result in exactly 4 gallons of water in the 5 gallon bucket.
that is from a bruce willis movie heheh
