If you have a bucket that holds 4 gallons of water and a second bucket that holds 7 gallons of water. The buckets have no markings can you go to the well and bring back exactly 5 gallons of water?

Yes, you can measure exactly 5 gallons using the two buckets. First, fill the 7-gallon bucket completely. Then, pour water from the 7-gallon bucket into the 4-gallon bucket until the smaller bucket is full; this will leave you with 3 gallons in the 7-gallon bucket. Next, empty the 4-gallon bucket and pour the 3 gallons from the 7-gallon bucket into it. Finally, fill the 7-gallon bucket again and pour into the 4-gallon bucket until it is full, which will leave you with exactly 5 gallons in the 7-gallon bucket.
