Question

Accepted Answer

Her would be the steps (well one way of doing it):

Fill the 12L jug.
Pour 5L into the 5L jug from the 12L jug. Leaving 7L in the 12L jug.
Empty the 5L jug.
Pour 5L into the 5L jug from the 12L jug. Leaving 2L in the 12L jug.
Empty the 5L jug.
Pour the 2L left over into the 5L jug.
Fill the 12L jug again.
Pour out of the 12L jug into the 5L jug until the 5L is full - i.e. take our 3L from the 12L.
The 12L jug now contains 9L (12 - 3 = 9).
