Fill the 5-quart pail, then pour the liquid into the 3-quart pail until it is full.
This will leave 2 quarts in your 5-quart pail. Empty the 3-quart pail.
Pour the 2 quarts from your 5-quart pail into the 3-quart pail. Then fill up the 5-quart pail.
Between the full 5-quart pail and the 3-quart pail (with 2 quarts in it) you should now have 7 quarts!
