Answer:
We can measure 4 gallon by successively.
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that you have an 8-gallon jug of water and two empty jugs with capacities of 5 gallons and 3 gallons, respectively. We are asked to prove or disprove that you can measure 4 gallon by successively pouring some of or all of the water in a jug into another jug.
First of all, we will pour 5 gallons of water from 8 gallon jug. Then we will pour 5 gallons of water from 5 gallon jug to 3 gallon jug. That will result in 2 gallons of water in 5 gallon jug.
Now, we will pour 3 gallons of water from 3 gallon jug to 8 gallon jug and pour 2 gallons from 5 gallon jug into 3 gallon jug. That will give us 6 gallons in 8 gallon jug and 2 gallons in 3 gallon jug and empty 5 gallon jug.
In our last step, we will fill 5 gallons jug from 8 gallon jug. After filling 5 gallon jug, we will fill 3 gallons jug from 5 gallon jug. Since 3 gallon jug already contains 2 gallons water, so it can only take one more gallon.
After pouring one gallon from 5 gallon jug, we will get 4 gallons water in 5 gallon jug.
Therefore, we can measure 4 gallon by successively pouring some of the water in a jug into another jug.
N + n/4 + 3 = 193
5n/4 = 190
n = 152
At 8 pages per day it will take 152 pages/ 8 pages/day = 19 days
ahaha good one

Answer:
9/8
Step-by-step explanation:
the quotient of -3/8 and -1/3
= (-3/8) / (-1/3)
= (-3/8) x (-3/1)
= 9/8
