Step-by-step explanation:

1.Fill the 7L pail full, then transfer the content to the 5L pail. There will be 2 litre left in the 7L pail. Empty the 5L pail. Transfer the content of 7L pail to the 5L pail. Now 5L pail contains 2 litre.

2.Fill the 7L pail full, then transfer the content to the 5L pail. There will be 4 litre left in the 7L pail since the 5L pail already have 2 litre (7-[5–2]=4). Empty the 5L pail. Transfer the content of 7L pail to the 5L pail. Now 5L pail contains 4 litre.

3.Do this one more time. Now you can only transfer 1 litre from the 7L pail to the 5L pail. Done.
