Step-by-step explanation:
Fill the 7 gallon bucket 3 times so it'll give you (7×3)=21 gallons
Then fill the 4 gallon bucket four times from the seven gallon bucket and you'll get (4×4)=16
Whatever is left at last is 21-16=5 gallons

To find:
- How to complete the task?
Solution:
- Since you have not given that we have another bucket or not, I will assume that we have another bucket.
- First, we will take 4 galloons of water, 3 times, in another bucket.
- So we will get quantity of water as 12 galloons.
- Now pour this 12 galloons to the 7 galloons bucket, so the 7 galloons bucket will be filled and 5 gallons will be left in the bucket.
This is the simplest and the easiest way I suppose, because no more bucket is given, with very less work.
