Pour the water
I don't know if any of you know this site, I just found it when I was trying to learn matrices.
If any of you know a site to learn 'integrals' (I don't know the term, whatever the opposite of derivative is :-), do contact me.
I get it. The problem says nothing about emptying the water in the 8oz glass. If you pour 4oz into the five oz glass and 3 oz into the 3oz glass then you can simply leave an oz in the 8 oz glass. Or you can pour 4 oz into the 5oz glass, leave 4oz in the 8 oz glass then leave the third glass empty. And to think I'm lousy at math.
If you have 3 glasses 3oz 5oz 8oz with 8oz full
pour 8 to 5 = 0 5 3
pour 5 to 3 = 3 2 3
pour 3 to 8 = 0 2 6
pour 5 to 3 = 2 0 6
pour 8 to 5 = 2 5 1
pour 5 to 3 = 3 4 1
It is a relatively simple problem but for me it is higher math.
