Question

Una receta exige 8 litros de agua: si tuvieras una jarra de 8 litros no habría problema, pero no posees más que 2 jarras sin graduar, una de 10 litros y otra de 6. ¿Es posible medir los 8 litros que necesitamos? —Explicar procedimiento

Answer 1

First, you fill the 6L cup.

Then you add everything to the 10L. There would be a difference of 4L.

You put a line on the 6L added. And then you fill it up until it completes the 10L. Repeat the process 2 times adding water up to 10L and adding the 4L difference to the recipe.

Step-by-step explanation:

- 8L are needed for a recipe.

- You have a 6L jug and a 10L jug without graduation.

- You fill the 6L of the jug and put it in the 10L jug, and put a line that marks the 6L.

- Then you complete the 10L, empty until the water is with the same 6L of water, and repeat the process.

- So you complete 4L without having graduated jugs.
