If you have 3 liters of water 5 liters of water and 8 liters of water how do you get 4 liters of water?

fill the 3 litre. empty this into the 8 litre. Fill the 3 litre, empty this into the 5 litre. Fill the 3 litre, empty as much as possible into the 5 litre, but you'll have one left. when you add this 1 to the 8 litre jug that you've already got 3 litres in already, this gives you 4 litres.

How do you measure 8 liter water from 5 liter and 3 liter jar?
Here's a step-by-step solution: Fill up the 5-liter jar completely with water. Pour the water from the 5-liter jar into the 3-liter jar until the 3-liter jar is full. Now, you are left with 2 liters of water in the 5-liter jar. Empty the 3-liter jar. Pour the 2 liters of water from the 5-liter jar into the 3-liter jar. Fill up the 5-liter jar again. Pour enough water from the 5-liter jar into the 3-liter jar to fill it completely (this will take 1 liter). Now, you are left with 4 liters of water in the 5-liter jar, which gives you the required 8 liters of water.

-fill 5L pour into 7L -fill 5L pour into 7L so that the 7L is now full 5L jar has 3L and 7L has 7L -empty 7L -pour the 3L from the 5 into the 7 -fill 5L pour into 7L so that the 7L is now full 5L jar has 1L and 7L is full -fill 5L (again!) pour into 7L 7L jar now has 6L -fill the 5L jar and pour into the 7L jar so that it is full -since 1L is poured from 5L there is 4L remaining in it. these water pouring questions work by the remainder when multiples of the smaller container are divided by the larger container (that's why the procedure is so repetitive!)
