Fill the seven liter can.
Pour water from the seven liter can into the five liter can, until it's full.
The remainder water in the seven liter can is 2 liters.
Repeat the above process 3 times.
Fill the 3 litre can and pour it into the 5 litre can, do this again until the 5 litre can is full. This leaves 1 litre in the 3 litre can. Empty the 5 litre can and tip the one litre from the 3 litre can into the 5 litre can. Now fill the 3 litre can to the top and empty this into the 5 litre can - 4 litres.
There is most likely a more efficient way to do this, but this is the best I can do for now.Notation: ( x , y ) where x is the amount of water in the 5-liter container and y is the amount of water in the 7-liter container1. Fill the five-liter container ( 5 , 0 )2. Pour the five-liter container into the seven-liter container ( 0 , 5 )3. Fill the five-liter container ( 5 , 5 )4. Fill the seven-liter container with the five-liter container, leaving 3 liters in the five-liter container ( 3 , 7 )5. Pour out the seven-liter container ( 3 , 0 )6. Pour the five-liter container into the seven-liter container ( 0 , 3 )7. Fill the five-liter container ( 5 , 3 )8. Fill the seven-liter container with the five-liter container, leaving 1 liter in the five-liter container ( 1 , 7 )9. Pour out the seven-liter container ( 1 , 0 )10. Pour the five-liter container into the seven-liter container ( 0 , 1 )11. Fill the five-liter container ( 5 , 1 )12. Pour the five-liter container into the seven-liter container ( 0 , 6 )

It's the same puzzle from Die Hard 3, except you have to do it twice. First, use the eight liter jar to fill the three liter and dump it into the five liter. Now fill the three liter again and use it to fill the five liter up to the top. This leaves one liter in the three liter jar. Empty the five liter back into the eight and then dump the remaining milk in the three liter jar into the five liter. Fill the three liter again and dump it into the five liter. Now you have four liters in the five liter jar, and four liters are left in the eight liter jar.

Five-sixths of a liter is twenty-twenty--fourths of a liter.
Typically soda cans hold 12 ounces of liquid, and 2 liters converts to 67.628 ounces. So to find how many cans are in 2 liters you would need to divide 67.628 by 12, which is about 5.64. So you could fit five full cans and about half of another one in a 2 liter bottle.
fill three liter can to the top empty contents into five liter can fill three liter can again empty into five liter can leaving one liter in the three liter can empty five liter can pour the remaining liter from three liter can into five liter can fill three liter can again and empty into five liter can leaving exactly 4 liters
There are two easy ways to do these with these resources: The first one is to simply fill the two litre bucket half full and fill the four litre bucket to the brim and then, all together, in both buckets you have five litres: Voila The second one is slightly more complex you fill the four litre bucket three quatre full and then fill the other bucket to the brim: Voila As well as these there are many more more complex answers to this questions
