How can you fetch 4 gal of water in one trip with a 5 gal pail and a 3 gal pail both unmarked?
Fill the 3 gal pail and pour into the 5 gal pail. Refill the 3 gal pail and pour two gallons of it into the 5 gallon pail - filling the 5 gallon pail and leaving 1 gallon in the 3 gallon pail. Dump out the 5 gallon pail and pour the remaining 1 gallon from the 3 gallon pail into the 5 gallon pail. Fill the 3 gallon pail one more time and pour that into the 5 gallon pail with the 1 gallon already in it and you have 4 gallons.

First fill the nine quart pail. The using the nine quart pail fill the 3 quart pail. This leaves 6 quarts. Using the 3 quart pail pour all the water over flowing the two quart pail. This leaves a filled two quart pail, a partially filled nine quart pail containing 6 quarts and an empty 3 quart pail. 6 quarts plus 2 quarts plus 0 quarts equals 8 quarts. Each pail has been filled once. Redheart_of_the_13moons@yahoo.com

How many punds are there in 1 5 gal pail?
It is not possible to answer this question. There is no such measure as a "pund". The mass of the pail depends on what material it is made of. The mass of its contents - if it has any - depends on the substance in the pail. A pail full of water will have much less mass than one full of earth (dirt).

If you have a 9 qt pail and 4 qt pail how can you get exactly 6 qts?
Fill the 4 qt pail, and empty the contents into the 9 qt pail. Repeat. You should now have eight quarts in the 9 qt pail, and none in the 4 qt pail. Fill the 4 qt pail again, and fill the remaining space of the 9 qt pail with it, leaving a full 9 qt pail and a 4 qt pail with only three quarts in it. Empty the 9 qt pail, and dump the contents of the 4 qt pail into the 9 qt pail. There are now three quarts in the 9 qt pail. Fill the 4 qt pail and empty the contents into the 9 qt pail. Repeat this step without spilling anything. The second time, two quarts should go into the 9 qt pail, filling it up, and two should remain in the 4 qt pail. Empty the contents of the 9 qt pail, and transfer that of the 4 qt pail into the 9 qt pail. Fill the 4 qt pail and empty it into the 9 qt pail. There are now 6 quarts in the 9 qt pail. QED.
