Riddle......This is a tough one....?!


Question: There is a 5 gallon jug and a 3 gallon jug sitting next to a fountain. Next to the fountain there is also a scale; and the scale is connected to a bomb. Simon says, the scale needs to read 4 gallons on the nose or the bomb will blow. What do you do?
If you explain it correctly and tell me what movie it is from I will give you the ten points.

Fill up the 5 gallon pour in to the 3 gallon. You left 2 gallons in the 5 gallon jug.

Pour away the 3 gallon, pour the '2 gallons' of 5 gallon jug into the 3 gallon jug.

Now fill up the 5 gallon jug again. Pour into the 3 gallon jub till it is full. You will pour away 1 gallon as there are 2 gallons in it already.

So 5 -1 left 4 gallons in the big jug.

It's from Die Hard - with a Vengeance.

if it's a weight scale then it doesn't measure in gallons. but i don't know what movie it's from. or you can fill up the 5 gallon jug with four gallons of water from the fountain

fill up the 3 gallon jug, pour it in the 5 gallon jug. So the 5 gallon jug now has 3 gallons. Fill up the 3 gallon jug and pour the rest in the 5 gallon jug, which will leave us with 1 gallon left in the 3 gallon jug. Pour all of the 5 gallon jug out and pour the 1 gallon from the 3 gallon jug in the 5 gallon jug. Fill up the 3 gallon jug and put the 3 gallon in the 5 gallon jug and now you have 4 gallons in a 5 gallon jug. :)
And the riddle is from the movie Die Hard With a Vengence

First you fill the 5 gallon jug, pour the water in 3 galoon jug from 5 gallon jug, when 3 gallon jug is full, emty the 3 gallon jug, pour remain 2 gallon of water from 5 gallon jug to 3 gallon jug, now fill the 5 gallon jug, as 3 gallon jug is full of 2 gallon water, pour 1 gallon of water from 5 gallon jug to fill it. now u have 4 gallon in the 5 gallon jug, u can use it for the sale.

It is from "Die hard - with a vengeance".

Fill the 5 gallon jug with water and use the 3 gallon jug to take out 3 gallons of water. Pour the 2 gallons of water onto the scale. Repeat this once and you'll get 4 gallons of water.

idk but this answer bumped me up to level 3 thanks :)

Empty the 5 gallon jug first. Fill the 3 gallon jug to full then u pour inside the 5 gallon jug so the jug will hold 3 gallon now. then fill up the 3 gallon jug again and pour to add on the 5 gallon jug which now can only hold another 2 gallon. So u will have a filled up 5 gallon jug and a remaining 1 gallon inside your 3 gallon jug.

Throw away the 5 gallon jug water and pour in the remaining 1 gallon water from your 3 gallon jug. Then filled up your 3 gallon jug to the brim.. and put the 3 gallon filled jug with the remaining 1 gallon water from your 5 gallon jug... 4 gallon on the scale.
