A milkman says to a boy "in one can there is spring water, other can contains a cream milk. I will mix some water with the milk to provide wholesome diet. If I take some quantity from can A and pour it into can B such that its content doubles, again take some quantity from can B and pour it into can A such that its content doubles, again take some quantity from can A and pour it into can B such that its content doubles. Finally quantity of milk in both the cans are same but the amount of water is one gallon more than the milk. (they didnt specify what the can A & can B contains) (1) What is the initial amount of milk and water? (2) What is the final amount of milk and water?
