Logic Puzzles
13. Imagine having three bowls. In the
bowl A (8 liters capacity) are 5 liters of water. In the bowl B
(5 liters capacity) are 3 liters of water. In the bowl C (3
liters capacity) are 2 liters of water. Can you measure exactly
1 liter, over spilling only 2 times?
Solution:
Pour 1 liter from bowl A to bowl C. Thus 4 liters are left in
the bowl A and bowl C is full (3 liters). Now pour 2 liters from
bowl C to bowl B. Doing that you have full bowl B (5 liters) and
there is 1 liter left in bowl C.
