How would they do it if they only have a five - gallon and a three gallon jug?
[LIST=1]
[*]Fill the 5-gallon jug all the way.
[*]Pour water into the 3 gallon jug until it is full.
[*]Now you have 2 gallons in the 5-gallon jug and a full 3 gallons in the 3-gallon jug.
[*]Empty the 3-gallon jug.
[*]Pour the 2 gallons of water still in the 5-gallon jug into the 3-gallon jug.
[*]Now the 3-gallon jug has 2 gallons of water in it, and 1 gallon of empty space.
[*]Fill up the 5 gallon jug all the way, and then pour water out of the 5-gallon jug into the 3-gallon jug until the 3-gallon jug is full.
[*]This leaves exactly [B]4 gallons[/B] in the 5-gallon jug.

What is the probability of picking a P from the word hippopotamus?What is the probability of picking a P from the word hippopotamus?
There are 3 P's in a word with 12 characters.
So our probability is 3/12.
