Well, honey, you can fill up the 5 liter jug, pour it into the 7 liter jug, fill up the 5 liter jug again, and pour it into the 7 liter jug until it's full. That leaves you with 3 liters in the 5 liter jug. Voila, you've measured out 4 liters using those jugs. Easy peasy lemon squeezy!

How do you measure 4 liters of water if you have a 7-liter and a 5-liter bucket?
To measure 4 liters of water using a 7-liter and a 5-liter bucket, you can follow these steps: Fill the 5-liter bucket to the top and pour it into the 7-liter bucket, leaving 2 liters in the 5-liter bucket. Empty the 7-liter bucket and pour the remaining 2 liters from the 5-liter bucket into the 7-liter bucket. Fill the 5-liter bucket again and pour it into the 7-liter bucket, which already has 2 liters, making it a total of 4 liters in the 7-liter bucket.
We have three jars one of 12-liter one 7-liter and one 5-liter. The 12-liter jar is full of water and the 7-liter with the 5-liter jar are empty. How do you get 6 liters of water using the two jars?
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.
