Yes, we've all seen Die Hard.
fill the 5 gallon bucket. Dump 3 gallons into the 3 gallon bucket. Now you have 2 gallons in the big bucket. Dump out the smaller bucket. Dump the 2 remaining gallons from the large bucket to the small bucket. Then refill the 5 gallon bucket.
now you have 5 gallons in one bucket and 2 in the other for a total of 7 gallons.
I don't know, but if you watch the movie Die Hard with a Vengence, they show you how to do.
Fill 5, pour that into 3, you're left with 2 and 3, pour out 3, replace that with 2, fill 5. There's 7.
fill the 5 gallon bucket and pour it into the 3 gallon bucket, leaving your 5 gallon with only 2 gallons inside. Then dump the 3 gallon bucket out and put your 2 gallons from the 5 gallon bucket inside. Then fill the 5 gallon bucket up. VOILA
Fill the 5, dump it in the 3, that leaves 2. Dump the 3, pour the 2 into the 3, fill the 5, that gives you 7.
fill the 5 and pour it into the 3. dump it out and pour the remaining 2 into the 3, then fill the 5
Fill the 5 gallon bucket all the way up and dump 3 gallons into the 3 gallon bucket. Dump out the 3 gallon bucket and put the remaining 2 gallons in the 3 gallon bucket. Now fill the 5 gallon bucket back up. 5 gallons plus the 2 gallons still left in the 3 gallon bucket. Presto exactly 7 gallons.
And for those that don't know. Yes Die hard showed something similar. But they needed to make 4 gallons not 7
Step 1 - acquire a 7 gallon bucket.
Step 2 - fill it up.
LOL, ok, now for the real answer.
Fill up the 3 Gallon Bucket from you 5 Gallon Bucket, leaving 2 Gallons remaining in the 5 Gallon Bucket. mp that into your 7 Gallon Container. Fill up the 5 Gallon Bucket. Dump that into your 7 Gallon Container to fill it up.
