Answer / sonia

fill 5 liters jar and pour in 3 liters------ now you have 3 in 3 liters and 2 in 5 liters.
pour away the 3 in 3 liters jar and transfer the 2 in the now empty 3 liters.
Fill 5 liters jar again and pour in 3 liters jar----- Now you have 1 from 5 liters and 2 that were in 3 liters jar already. this gives you 4 in the 5 liters jar.

First fill up the 5 liters jar and start filling 3 liters
jar. so now second jar has 3 liters and first jar has 2
liters. Now again fill 5 liters fully and to complete
second jar 1 liter is needed. So, put water in second jar
from first jar. so, 3 liters jar is full now. And first jar
has 4 liters water.
