How can you fetch 4 gal of water in one trip with a 5 gal pail and a 3 gal pail both unmarked?
Fill the 3 gal pail and pour into the 5 gal pail. Refill the 3 gal pail and pour two gallons of it into the 5 gallon pail - filling the 5 gallon pail and leaving 1 gallon in the 3 gallon pail. Dump out the 5 gallon pail and pour the remaining 1 gallon from the 3 gallon pail into the 5 gallon pail. Fill the 3 gallon pail one more time and pour that into the 5 gallon pail with the 1 gallon already in it and you have 4 gallons.
