You have three jugs, which respectively hold 3 litres, 5 litres, and 8 litres of water. The 8-litre jug is full, the other two are empty. Your task is to divide the water into two parts, each of 4 litres, by pouring water from one jug into another. You are not allowed to estimate quantities by eye, so you can only stop pouring when one of the jugs involved becomes either full or empty.
