Unfortunately sugar is an imprecise term. It is better to specify glucose (usually means dextrose) or sucrose or fructose etc.
A 5 percent solution of one of these sugars would contain 5 grams weight dissolved in 100mL of water (or could be another solvent).

If 3 litres has 10% solution of sugar, the sugar comprises 300ml (i.e. a tenth of 3000). If we want 300ml to be 5% then we need a total of 100/5 * 300 = 6,000ml (6 litres). So we need to add 3 more litres of water. In other words, to halve the percentage of sugar we need to double the total solution from 3 litres to 6 litres.
