Answer / md

In my understanding this is not possible.
reason:

the final state expected is below [ no is () is the
capacity of the respective container. ]

2(15) 8(10) 5(6)

None of teh container is full.
Lets try for a back calculation.
What can be the last step, so that it results 2lt 8lt and 5
lt is respective containers..

Now the prob is you wont find a answr of it.
assume the last step to achieve this ... was pouring x lt
of lequid from 1st to 2nd. so 1st had 2+x lt and 2nd had 8-x

Now how would one measure this x amount?.. Usually in such
cases measurement comes from container's capacity. Hence at
any state at least one container has to be totally full or
totally empty
see example below:

15 0 0
9 0 6 - 3rd is totally full
0 9 6 - 3rd is totally full
6 9 0 - 3rd is totally empty [when none is totally full]
5 10 0 - 2nd is totally full
0 10 5 - 2nd is totally full

I cant derive any state out of it... where all are partly
full.

Hence the solution expected is not possible to derive
without additional equipment.

Answer / nitish

assuming
half the volume can b calculated using tiltin the container
to da point where the level is diagonal to the container.

thus config can be

15 0 0
9 0 6
9 6 0
3 6 6
3 10 2
now half of middle to the first
8 5 2(now shift the containers to desired pos :P)

Answer / karthikeyan

pore 5 lts from first container to the last container and 8
lts into the second container

Answer / aditya

fill the last container from the first that is 6 litre will
be deducted from 15.
now first will have 9 and third will have 6,
now empty the first one into second one therefore second
will now have 9 litres and third will be 6(unchanged)
first is now zero.
now empty 1 litre from third one into second one,so as to
make second one full i.e. 10 litre.
so third now will have 5 litre,and second will have 10
litre,and first is now zero.
now fill first with 2 litre from second one.

Ali Baba had four sons, to whom he bequeathed his 39 camels, with the proviso that the legacy be divided in the following way : The oldest son was to receive one half the property, the next a quarter, the third an eighth and the youngest one tenth. The four brothers were at a loss as how to divide the inheritance among themselves without cutting up a camel, until a stranger appeared upon the scene. Dismounting from his camel, he asked if he might help, for he knew just what to do. The brothers gratefully accepted his offer. Adding his own camel to Ali Baba's 39, he divided the 40 as per the will. The oldest son received 20, the next 10, the third 5 and the youngest 4. One camel remained : this was his, which he mounted and rode away. Scratching their heads in amazement, they started calculating. The oldest thought : is not 20 greater than the half of 39? Someone must have received less than his proper share ! But each brother discovered that he had received more than his due. How is it possible?
