they each get 2/5ths of the bottle of water

Just 2.
Oh, dude, the quotient of x and 2 is just x divided by 2. It's like when you have a pizza and you share it with 2 friends, each of you gets one-third of the pizza. So, in math terms, x divided by 2 is the same as x over 2. Easy peasy, right?
Each of them have 1/5 from each jug of water, so they will have 2/5 from 2 jugs of water.

to reduce pressure which may prevent water from coming out when tilted
The smallest reasonable count is 2: 2 jugs.

freeze both of the waters and them put them in the barrel. you could still tell them apart since they will be frozen. freeze the water from both jugs and put them in the barrell you could mix the water with (different) coloured jello and lots of sugar so that they harden into two non-mixing lumps in the barral. And not only have you solved the riddle but have a yummy snack afterwards.

you fill the jug to the top and pour it into 2 equal jugs
Greg Norman won the Open Championship in 1986 and 1993, so 2 claret jugs.
fill the 5 gallon jug with water then pour the water into the 3 gallon jug until its full then u will have 2 gallons in the 5 gallon jug. then if the jugs both have the same circumference u can just make the water in both jugs level then u will have 2 gallons of water in each jug. pour the water from the 3 gallon jug into the 5 gallon jug. and u should know that 2+2=4 :)
they hold thingsyou don't have to hold a lot of thingsthey break easily mostly with jugs of water and a gallon of milkthey are sometimes hard to open
