Two containers, one for 3 liters and one for 5 liters, how would you measure 4 liters

Mashutka [201]

Fill the 5-liter container, pour water from that into the 3 liter container until that is full, You will now have 2 liters left in the 5 liter container.

Empty the 3-liter container, and then transfer the 2 liters from the 5-liter container into it.

Now fill the 5-liter container again, then pour water carefully from the 5-liter container into the 3-liter container until it is full - exactly one more liter.

The 5-liter container now has 4 liters in it.
