# Fill the 5 liter bucket # Pour it into the 7 liter bucket # Fill the 5 liter bucket # Fill the 7 liter bucket from the 5 (2 liters go in leaving 3 liters in the 5 liter bucket) # Empty the 7 liter bucket # Pour the 3 liters from the 5 liter bucket into the 7 liter bucket # Fill the 5 liter bucket # Fill the 7 liter bucket from the 5 liter bucket (4 liters go in leaving 1 liter in the 5 liter bucket) # Empty the 7 liter bucket # Pour the 1 liter form the 5 liter bucket into the 7 liter bucket # fill the 5 liter bucket. You now have 5 liters in the 5 liter bucket and 1 liter in the 7 liter bucket; 6 liters in all. Pour the 5 liters into the 7 liter bucket if you want all 6 liters in one container.
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;-)
1000 ml = 1l 1*5=5 It will take 5 times to fill the container.
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

You got to put 4 liters in the 5 liters jar. fill up the 7 LJ (liters jar), pass the liquid to the 5 LJ, and discard it. Now you have 2 liters in the 7LJ pass to and keep it in the 5 LJ. Do it again, now you have 4 liters in the 5LJ. Fill up the 7 LJ, and use it to fill the 5 LJ ( it will pour just one liter) And you will have 6 liters inside de 7 LJ. =D

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.

Fill the 5l pitcher, use it to fill the 3l pitcher. Dump the 3l pitcher out and put what is left in the 5l pitcher into it. Fill the 5l pitcher and use it to finish filling the 3l pitcher. You are now left with 4 liters in the larger pitcher.
Fill up the 5 litres and empty. Do this again and you have 10 litres. Then fill the 5 litres, then fill the 4 litres from the 5 litres, and you're left with the final 1 that you needed to complete the 11 litres
80 liters will fill a good sized fish tank [about 21 gal]. 80 milliliters would hardly start, as that is about 5 tablespoons.
About 169 US fluid ounces. Google can calculate this for you.5 liters = 169.070114 oz.
This method works with any such problem, as long as the two buckets' liter-capacities (or gallon capacities, etc.) have no common factors, or else the common factors are also factors of the amount you're trying to measure. Fill the 7-liter bucket, and empty 5 liters of it into the 5-liter bucket; then dump out the 5 liters. Two liters will remain in the 7-liter bucket; transfer them to the 5-liter bucket. Fill the 7-liter bucket again, and empty enough of the bucket into the 5-liter bucket to fill it. That should only be 3 liters transfered, leaving 4 liters left in the 7-liter bucket. QED.
