Answer by Cromlix(4381) About Me  (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website!
Use your 5 litre bucket twice
to fill your receptacle and
then use your 3 litre bucket twice to
remove water from your receptacle.
You will have 4 litres left in the
receptacle
5 + 5 = 10
10 - 3 + 3 = 4
Hope this helps.
