Brainteasers!!!!

- Fill the 5 gallon container

- Empty into the 3 gallon container until it's full

- This leaves 2 gallons in the 5 gallon container

- Empty the 3 gallon container and pour the remaining 2 gallons from the 5 gallon container into the 3 gallon conatiner (still with me!)

-Fill the 5 gallon container again. By filling the remaining gallon into the 3 gallon container, exactly 4 gallons will be left in the 5 gallon container.

Another method

 

Fill the 3 gallon bucket and empty into the 5 gallon bucket;

Again fill the 3 gallon bucket and empty into the 5 gallon bucket until it is full. This will leave 1 gallon in the 3 gallon bucket;

Now empty the 5 gallon bucket, and pour the remaining 1 gallon into the 5 gallon bucket;

Then fill the 3 gallon bucket and empty into the 5 gallon bucket, making 4 gallons.

^Nice one. I didn't realise there WAS another way to do it! :lol:

 

 

Find the hidden country in the following sentence.

 

All of our newspaper undermanagers require a ten percent pay increase before they will consider working again.

 

 

...and one more hidden picture. What is it?
