You fill up a three gallon container and dump it into a five gallon container. Then fill up the three gallon container again adn dump it into the 5 gallon container too, but only 2 gallons will fit becuase you already have 3 in it. That leaves you with 1 gallon left in the three gallon container. Now dump all the water out of the 5 gallon container and poor the remaining 1 gallon from the 3 gallon container into the 5 gallon container. Fill up the three gallon again. 1 gallon is in the 5 gallon container, adding the three gallons will make it 4 gallons of water.

I never understood that water bottle test!! thanks melissa! Report It

  • lets start with the elephant

    What has 4 legs and is always ready to travel

    as for the 4 gallons: the three gallon jug only has 3 gallons so he filled that then used it to fill another gallon
