1)fill 5 litre can and pour in to 3 litre can. so we have 3 litre can filled and 2 litres in 5 litre can.
2)now empty 3 litre can and pour the 2 litres from 5 litre can,so 3 litre can has 2 litres and 5 litre can is empty
3)fill 5 litre can and pour into 3 litre can till it is filled, that is 1 litre is poured into 3 litre can and so 5 litre can has 4 litres in it. hence the solution.

1) First take 3 liter of water in 3 liter bucket and pour this into 5 liter bucket.
2) If you are trying to do the same again, you will have one liter water in 3 liter bucket and the 5 liter bucket is filled.
3) Empty the 5 liter bucket and transfer the 1 liter water in 3 liter bucket to 5 liter bucket.
4) Repeat the 1st point.
5) Now you will have 4 liter water in 5 liter bucket.

First fill 3 ltr bucket full then pour it to 5 ltr bucket. Again fill 3 ltr bucket fully and pour it to 5 ltr bucket so that 5 ltr bucket is full and 3 ltr bucket is left out with 1 ltr of water, Now empty 5 ltr bucket completely by pouring water back to reservior. Now pour 1 ltr of water in to 5 ltr bucket. Now 5 ltr bucket has 1 ltr of water now fill 3 ltr water in 3 ltr bucket and pour it in to 5 ltr bucket.
Now we are left out with 4 ltr water in that bucket.
Thx

We have only 5 liter of water not more than that. & we have to adjust that water as given in the question I think. Why everybody is considering more than that. It is mentioned in the question clearly.
