Chapter 1.4, Problem 14ES
Two jugs A and B have capacities of 3 quarts and 5 quarts respectively. Can you use the jugs to measure out exactly 1 quart of water, while obeying the following restrictions? You may fill either jug to capacity restrictions? You may fill either jug to capacity from a water tap; you may empty the contents of either jug into a drain; and you may pour water from either jug into the other.
