HI
I have a 4 unit jug and a 9 unit jug and unending water. With no half filling or guesstimating though water can be discarded, how do I end up with 7 units?
Thanks in advance.

Fill the 4 and tip it into the 9
Fill the 4 again and tip it into the 9 which now has 8
fill the 4 and tip it intoi the 9 until full (ie transfer 1)
This now leaves 3 in the 4 jug
Empty the 9
Tip the 3 in the 4 jug at present into the 9
Fill the 4 and tip this into the 9
There is now 7 in the 9 jug
