1. Fill the 4L jar and empty it into the 5l jar.So now you have 1 L remaining in 5L jar.
2. Fill up the 7L jar and transfer exactly 1L in the 5L jar to make it full. This will give you with 6L in the 7L jar:)
You have to have something else to build the 4 liters into. Call it The Tub.Fill the 5.Pour the 5 into the 3.That leaves 2 liters in the 5.Pour them into The Tub. You now have 2 liters in The Tub.Empty the 3.Fill the 5.Pour the 5 into the 3.That leaves 2 liters in the 5.Pour them into The Tub. You now have 4 liters in The Tub.QEDYou do not have a TUB, it is not in the problem.Fill the 5 liter containerPour it into the 3 liter container leaving 2 liters in the 5 liter containerEmpty the 3 liter containerPour the 2 liters from the 5 liter container into the 3 liter containerFill the 5 liter containerFill the remainder of the 3 liter container from the 5 liter containerSince the 3 liter container already had 2 liters in it, one liter from the 5 liter container will fill it leaving 4 liters in the 5 liter container.Solved
Start with both empty: 0 in 5 litre jar, 0 in 4 litre jar Fill 5: 5 in 5, 0 in 4 Pour from 5 into 4: 1 in 5, 4 in 4. Empty out 4: 1 in 5, 0 in 4. Transfer from 5 to 4: 0 in 5, 1 in 4. Fill 5: 5 in 5, 1 in 4. Pour from 5 into 4: 2 in 5, 4 in 4. Empty out 4: 2 in 5, 0 in 4. Transfer from 5 to 4: 0 in 5, 2 in 4. Fill 5: 5 in 5, 2 in 4. Done!
1)Transfer 7 liters from the 12-liter jar into the 7-liter jar.We now have 5 liters in the 12-liter jar and 7 liters in the 7-liter jar. The 5-liter jar is empty, as of now.2)Transfer 5 liters from the 7-liter jar into the 5-liter jar.The 12-liter, 7-liter, 5-liter jars now contain 5, 2 and 5 liters respectively.3)Empty the contents of the 5-liter jar into the 12-liter jar.The 12, 7, 5- liter jars now contain 10, 2 and 0 liters respectively.4)From the 7-liter jar, take out 5 liters and pour 7 liters from the 12-liter jar into the 7-liter jar.We now have 3 liters in the 12-liter jar and 7 in the 7-liter one, while the 5-liter jar has only two liters in it.5)Fill up the remainder of the 5-liter jar using the 7-liter jar.That leaves us with 3 liters on the 12-liter jar and 4 liters in the 7-liter jar. The 5-liter jar is full.6)Pour the contents of the 5-liter jar into the 12-liter jar.There are 8 liters in the 12-liter jar and 4 liters in the 7-liter jar, while the 5-liter jar is empty.7)Pour the 4 liters that are in the 7-liter jar into the 5-liter jar.We now have 8 liters in the 12-liter jar and 4 liters in the 5-liter jar. The 7-liter jar is empty.8)Fill the 7-liter jar using the 12-liter jar.There is now only 1 liter in the 12-liter jar and 7 liters in the 7-liter jar and 4 liters in the 5-liter jar.9)Fill up the 5-liter jar using the 7-liter jar.There is now 1 liter in the 12-liter jar and 6 liters in the 7-liter jar and 5 in the 5-liter jar.NOTE: This might not be the only way, or the shortest way to do it.

1. Fill the 3 liter bowl from the 10 liter jug. -Jug: 7/10 -Bowl: 3/3 -Cup: 0/5 2. Pour the 3 liters from the bowl into the 5 liter cup. -Jug: 7/10 -Bowl: 0/3 -Cup: 3/5 3. Fill the 3 liter bowl again from the 10 liter jug. -Jug: 4/10 -Bowl: 3/3 -Cup: 3/5 **If having the 4 liters in the jug is acceptable, just stop here. If you need the 4 liters in the cup, continue. 4. Fill the remainder of the 5 liter cup with with water from the 3 liter bowl. This will use 2 of the 3 liters in the bowl, leaving one left over. -Jug: 4/10 -Bowl: 1/3 -Cup: 5/5 5. Pour the 5 liters in the cup into the jug. -Jug: 9/10 -Bowl: 1/3 -Cup: 0/5 6. Pour the 1 liter from the 3 liter bowl into the 5 liter cup. -Jug: 9/10 -Bowl: 0/3 -Cup: 1/5 7. Fill the 3 liter bowl with water from the 10 liter jug. -Jug: 6/10 -Bowl: 3/3 -Cup: 1/5 8. Pour the 3 liters in the bowl into the 5 liter cup. -Jug: 6/10 -Bowl: 0/3 -Cup: 4/5 You now have 4 liters in the 5 liter cup.
7, 5 Liter jars 7, 0 = fill 7 liters jar 2, 5 = transfer to the 5 liters jar 2, 0 = emtry the 5 liters jar 0, 2 = transfter to 5 liters jar 7, 2 = fill in the 7 liter jar 4, 5 = transfer 7 liter to 5 liter jar 4, 0 = emtry to 5 liters jar 0, 4 = transfer to 5 liters jar 7, 4 = fill in 7 liter jar 6, 5 = transfer 7 liter to 5 liter jar Fill the 7 liter jar and tip into the 5liter jar. you now have 2 litres in the 7 liter jar, empty the 7 liter and tip the 2 liters into the 5liter jar. Fill the 7liter and tip into 5 liter, you now have 4 liters in the 7 liter jar, empty the 5 liter jar and put 4liters from 7 liter jar into it. Again fill the 7 liter jar, 1 more liter will fill the 5 liter jar so empty the 7 liter into the 5 liter, 6liters left in the 7 liter jar;-)
4% of 5 liters is 1/5 of a liter
Okay so fill up the seven liter jug completely and pour as much as you can into the 4 liter jug. You now have 3 liters in the 7 liter jug and 4 liters in the 4 liter jug. Pour the 4 liter out half way, now you have 2 liters in the 4 liter jug. Now pour the contents of the 4 liter jug into the 7 liter jug that has 3 liters in it. You know have a jug with 5 liters.
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.
Add 5 liters to the 7 liter bottle. Add 5 more to the 7 liter bottle; now you have 3 liters. Dump out the water from the 7 liter bottle. Then add the 3 liters to the 7 liter bottle. Fill the 5 liter bottle again and dump it into the 7 liter bottle. Dump out the water in the 7l bottle and add 1 liter to the 7 liter bottle. Add 5 liters to the 7 liter bottle and there you have it.
0.05 x 3 liters = 0.15 liters or 150 ml
