Ajith, a villager, went to his neighbor Kasim, to borrow 4 litres of kerosene. He took a container with him. Kasim had a stock of a full bottle of 8 litres of kerosene. He agreed to share half of what he had. But they didn’t know how to share. Kasim had two empty bottles of 5 litres and 3 litres each respectively, with him. There were no other measures or other bottles, but had to divide the oil exactly into two equal parts. How could they do it ?
