Fill up the 5 liter bowl (from the lake).


Use the 5 liter bowl to fill up the 3 liter bowl. That leaves 2 liter in the 5 liter bowl.


Empty the 3 liter bowl (back to the lake or trow it away, doesn't matter).


Put the 2 liter from the 5 liter bowl into the 3 liter bowl.


Fill up the 5 liter bowl (from the lake).


Fill up the 3 liter bowl using the 5 liter bowl. The 3 liter bowl already contains 2 liter, so 1 liter goes from the 5 liter bowl to the 3 liter bowl.

You just removed 1 liter from the 5 liter bowl. That leaves 4 liter and that's what we wanted!!

Roh'El's Mathematical Riddles

তাই রিমঝীম সে কেঁদে চলে, আপন সুরে আপন তালে

সেই বৃষ্টি আজ কাঁদায় আমাকে, জাগিয়ে তুলে সে স্মৃতিটাকে
কোনো একদিন তুমি কেঁদেছিলে, এই আমার দুটি হাত ধরে
বলেছিলে কভু দূরে না হাড়াতে, অথচ কখন যেন
নিজে হারালে আমায় একা ফেলে, তাই কেঁদে চলে বৃষ্টি আপন সুরে,
আপন তালে, আপন সুরে...
