You are born with them, but you don't really use them, and people eat ribs for dinner and such.

Riddle #27:

You have a 5-gallon container and a 3-gallon container. Using only these two things, can you measure 4-gallons of water and how?

 

[Spider-Fan]

Oh god, I need to watch Die Hard 3 again...gotta remember this!

 

[Carcharodon]

Fill them both exactly half-full.

2.5 + 1.5 = 4.

 

[Spider-Fan]

Fill them both exactly half-full.

2.5 + 1.5 = 4.

There you go...couldn't remember the answer.

 

[wiegeabo]

Fill them both exactly half-full.

2.5 + 1.5 = 4.

But you can't be sure you've filled them exactly half-full.

 

[Carcharodon]

Well I knew it had to do with averages. (3+5)/2 = 4, which translates to (3/2) + (5/2) = 4, which again translates to 1.5 + 2.5 = 4.

 

[Yurka]

ive seen die hard 3 like 10 times and I still cant understand how the hell they do that

 

[Carcharodon]

But you can't be sure you've filled them exactly half-full.

Ah ******ed lol. Fine, here:

Fill the 5-gallon container completely full, then pour enough water into the 3 gallon container to fill it. Do this twice.

EDIT: Wait...damnit. lol

fill the 3 gallon, and pour into the 5.
fill the three again, and pour all you can into the 5, leaving 1.

empty the 5. pour in 1.

fill the 3.

add to the 5.

save the children's lives.

There it is.

you cant do it with averages. it has to be correct to wiithin an ounce or the children die!
