Summary
| Description | Two ways to obtain 4 litres using 3-litre and 5-litre jugs, and either a water source and sink or an 8-litre jug on a Cartesian grid with diagonal lines of slope -1 by CMG Lee. The x and y axes represent the amounts in the 5 and 3 L jugs, respectively, while the diagonal lines represent the amount in the 8 L jug. Starting from (0, 0), we traverse the grid along the line segments, stopping or turning only on its boundaries, until we reach the black line denoting 4 L in the 5 L jug. Solid lines denote pouring between jugs, dashed lines denote filling a jug (from the 8 L jug) and dotted lines denote emptying a jug. |
