Maths nerd bit: You're looking for the smallest ''x'' and ''y'' that satisfy 3''x''−5''y''=4; then fill the 3-liter ''x'' times, pouring it into the 5-liter when full, and emptying the 5-liter when it's full (which you'll do ''y'' times). The solution is ''x''=3 and ''y''=1. The alternate solution up there is the dual formulation, 5''x''−3''y''=4 (''x''=2, ''y''=2). From here, two details present themselves: one, that it's easily adaptable to other values other than 3 and 5, and two, that a solution exists only if the target value is either a factor or a multiple of the highest common factor of the container sizes (e.g. you can't get 4 liters from 6- and 3-liter containers).

* In an episode of ''Series/{{Zoom}}'', Jessie and Zoe are challenged to divide 10 quarts of water into two equal parts using only a 10-quart bucket, a 7-quart bucket, and a 3-quart pitcher, leaving 5 quarts each in the two buckets and the pitcher empty (5/5/0). To start, all 10 quarts are in the larger bucket (10/0/0). When transferring water from one container to another, they ''must'' fill that container all the way, or use the entire remaining volume of the container they're pouring from, whichever comes first. Zoe keeps track of the three volumes on an easel. After at least 20 transfers (with Zoe's chart now on a second page), they eventually get to 1/7/2. It is at this point that Jessie figures out how to reach the goal of 5/5/0: transfer the 7 quarts to the 10-quart bucket (8/0/2), then the 2 quarts into the empty 7-quart bucket (8/2/0), then use the 8 quarts to fill the empty 3-quart pitcher (5/2/3), and finally, pour the 3 quarts into the 7-quart bucket, adding to the 2 quarts already in there.
