Steps to be carries out to measure out 4 liters of water exactly.

Water content: 3 liter jar = Empty , 5 liter jar = Empty

1) Fill the 3 liter jar completely with water.

3 liter jar = 3 liter , 5 liter jar = Empty

2) Empty the filled 3 liter jar of water by pouring it out into 5 liter jar.

Water content: 3 liter jar = Empty , 5 liter jar = 3 liter

3) Again fill the empty 3 liter jar completely.

Water content: 3 liter jar = 3 liter , 5 liter jar = 3 liter

4) Pour water from 3 liter jar into 5 liter jar until it is completely filled.

Water content: 3 liter jar = 1 liter , 5 liter jar = 5 liter

5)  Empty the 5 liter jar completely.

Water content: 3 liter jar = 1 liter , 5 liter jar = Empty

6) Empty the 3 liter jar by pouring the water into 5 liter jar.

Water content: 3 liter jar = Empty , 5 liter jar = 1 liter

7) Fill the 3 liter jar completely with water.

It cost $5 for his brother's ticket.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Micheal's ticket price= x

His brother ticket price = y

According to given statement;

x+y=12    Eqn 1

y = x-2    Eqn 2

Putting value of y from Eqn 2 in Eqn 1

x+(x-2)=12\\x+x-2=12\\2x=12+2\\2x=14\\

Dividing both sides by 2;

\frac{2x}{2}=\frac{14}{2}\\x=7

Putting x=7 in Eqn 2

y=7-2\\y=5

It cost $5 for his brother's ticket.
