you can measure exactly 7 gallons using a five gallon jug and a three gallong jug by using one five gallon jug and 2/3 of the three gallon jug to equal seven gallons total. That is what I think for being 11 years old. by of course JACIE <3 !!!!!!!!!!!!!
There are lots of ways to do this, but here's one: Fill the 5 gallon jug to the top. Pour the water from the 5 gallon jug to the 3 gallon jug until the 3 gallon jug is full. What's left in the 5 gallon jug is 5 - 3 = 2 gallons. Dump what's in the 3 gallon jug. Put the 2 gallons from the larger jug into the smaller jug. Now fill the 5 gallon jug. You'll have 5 + 2 = 7 gallons, as needed.
Fill the 5 gallon jug completely then pour that into the 3 gallon jug. Empty out the 3 gallon jug and pour the remaining water in the 5 gallon jug into the 3 gallon jug. Then just fill up the 5 gal jug again you will have 2 gallons in the 3 gallon jug and 5 gallons in the 5 gallon jug.
Let 16.0.0 represent 16 gallons in jug 1, and nil gallons in jugs 2 and 3. Then filling up jug 2 from jug 1 gives 7.9.0 Filling jug 3 from jug 2 gives 7.2.7 And proceeding 14.2.0 - 14.0.2 - 5.9.2 - 5.4.7 - 12.4.0 -12.0.4 - 3.9.4 - 3.6.7 - 10.6.0 - 10.0.6 - 1.9.6 - 1.8.7 we have 8 gallons as required.

AnswerThere are three ways to do this. Method 1Step 1 : Fill the 5 gallon jug and then pour it into the 3 gallon jug. The 5 gallon jug has2 gallons left.Step 2 : Now throw the 3 gallon water away. Pour the 2 gallons from the 5 gallon jug to the 3 gallon jug. So now the 3 gallon jug has just 2 gallons of water.Step 3 : Fill the 5 gallon jug again, and pour 1 gallon to the 3 gallon jug. What do u have left in the 5 gallon jug ?? 4 gallons of water.. !Method 2Next to each step, the current contents (in gallons of water) of the two jugs (5 gallon first, then 3 gallon) is written.5 0 Fill the 5 gallon jug.2 3 Pour 3 gallons into the other jug, leaving 2 gallons.2 0 Empty the 3 gallon jug.0 2 Pour the 2 gallons from the 5 gallon jug into the 3 gallon jug.5 2 Fill the 5 gallon jug again.4 3 Top up the 3 gallon jug from the 5 gallon jug, leaving 4 gallons in the 5 gallon jug.Method 3You fill the three gallon jug and then pour it into the five gallon jug. Then you fill it again and pour it in the five gallon jug, leaving one gallon in the three gallon jug. Then you pour out the five gallon jug, pour the one gallon from the three gallon jug into the five gallon jug, then you fill the three gallon jug, pour it into the five gallon jug, leaving four gallons in the five gallon jug. P.S Who designed that annoying bomb you're trying to defuse?
No, 13 quarts is greater than 3 gallons. There are 4 quarts in a gallon. 4 quarts x 3 = 12 quarts in 3 gallons, less than 13 quarts.
3 gallons is equal to 24 pints, as 1 gallon is equivalent to 8 pints.
Fill 7 gal jug with water and then dump into 4 gal jug leaving 3 gals in the 7 gal jug; throw out the 4 gal jug of water and pour the 3 gals from the 7 gal jug into the 4 gal jug leaving nothing in the 7 gal jug and 3 gals in the 4 gal jug; fill the 7 gal jug with water and pour into 4 gal jug till full, leaving 6 gals in the 7 gal jug
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 :)
you fill the five gallon then dump three of that into the three gallon so you have 3 in the 3 and 2 in the 5 then you dump out the three and fill the 3 with the remaining two gallons and fill the 5 completely so you have a combined 7 gallons.
