What else can I help you with?
If I have a bucket of water that holds 4 gallons of water and another bucket that holds 7 gallons of water. The buckets have no markings. How can I go to the well and bring back exactly 5 gallons?
Fill the 4 gal bucket and empty it into the 7 gal bucket. Fill the 4 gal bucket and then fill the 7 gal bucket from the 4 gal. This leaves 1 Gallon in the 4 gallon bucket. Empty the 7 gallon bucket and pour the gallon from the 4 gal lbucket into it. Fill the 4 gal bucket and pour it into the 7 gal bucket. You then have 5 gallons in the 7 gallon bucket.
If you had a 5 gallon bucket and a 3 gallon bucket how would you get 4 gallons?
you fill the 3 gallon bucket into the 5 gallon bucket twice 2 *3 6 gallons but the 5 gallon will only overflow once it hits 5 gallons. You get the 1 gallon half in the 3 gallon bucket and dump the water out of the 5 gallon bucket. You pour the 1 gallon left from the 3 gallon bucket into the 5 gallon bucket and then refill the 3 gallon bucket and put the 3 gallons in making 4 gallons.
How many quarts filled with water to fill a gallon?
There are 4 quarts in 1 gallon. So you would need 4 quarts of water to fill a gallon.
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.
How would you get 1 gallon from a 7 gallon bucket and a 1 gallon bucket?
Fill the 1 gallon bucket and ignore the other.

# Start with empty buckets, and carry them to the well. # (Note that the larger is the 7-gallon bucket, and the smaller is the 4-gallon bucket.) # Fill the 4-gallon bucket with water to the top. # Empty all the water from the 4-gallon bucket into the 7-gallon bucket. # (Note that there is room in the 7-gallon bucket for exactly 3 more gallons.) # Fill the 4-gallon bucket again. # Pour from the 4-gallon bucket into the 7-gallon bucket all the water that will fit, spilling none. # (Note that since there was room for only 3 more gallons in the 7-gallon bucket, you now have 1 gallon left in the 4-gallon bucket.) # Dump out all the water from the 7-gallon bucket. (Pour it back into the well or onto some flowers so it's not wasted.) # Pour the 1 gallon of water that remains in the 4-gallon bucket into the empty 7-gallon bucket. # Refill the 4-gallon bucket completely. # Pour all the 4 gallons from the 4-gallon bucket into the 7-gallon bucket. # (Note that since the 7-gallon bucket had 1 gallon already and you added 4 gallons, you now have 5 gallons of water in the 7-gallon bucket!) # Bring back your 7-gallon bucket that's holding exactly 5 gallons of water. (Bring your 4-gallon bucket back too, in case you want to play again!)

If you have a five gallon bucket and an eight gallon bucket and you need excactly three gallons of water how do you get it without a measuring cup and water supply unlimited?
-- fill the 8 from the unlimited supply -- fill the 5 from the 8 -- The 8 now has (8 - 5) = 3 gallons in it.
How do you determine water pressure by how long it takes to fill a two gallon bucket?
To determine water pressure using the time it takes to fill a two-gallon bucket, you first measure the time it takes for the bucket to fill completely. Then, you can calculate the flow rate by dividing the volume of the bucket (two gallons) by the time taken (in minutes or seconds). A faster fill time indicates higher water pressure, while a slower fill time suggests lower pressure. This method provides a practical, though indirect, assessment of water pressure in a plumbing system.
How can you measur 6 quarts of water in two pails?
You first dump the 5-gallon pail, then fill the 5-gallon pail from the water from the 8-gallon pail. Then you dump the 5-gallon pail again, and you are left with 2 gallons in the 8-gallon pail.
