Answer: Yes and it could be greater than 5 but it has to be greater than 4
:
We are given that there
will be (1/2) a litre after the first pouring, so considering two successive
pourings (n and (n+1)) with 1/2 litre in each before the nth pouring occurs:
1/2 × (1/n) = 1/(2n)
1/2 - 1/(2n) = (n-1)/2n
1/2 + 1/(2n) = (n+1)/2n
(n-1)/2n and (n+1)/2n in
each urn after the nth pouring
Then now consider the
(n+1)th pouring
(n+1)/2n × 1/(n+1) =
1/(2n)
(n+1)/(2n) - 1/(2n) =
n/(2n) = 1/2
Therefore this means that after
an odd number of pouring, there will be 1/2 a litre in each urn
Since 1997 is an odd
number, then there will be 1/2 a litre of water in each urn.

- Round:

4x - 7 = 5
4x = 5 + 7
4x = 12 (divide both sides by 4 to get x)
4x/4 = 12/4
x < 3
