I remember this math problem being one of the reasons I started liking math. I loved figuring out that there were multiple ways to complete the problem and I loved the critical thinking that was needed in order to solve it. Here is the problem:
You are given a 3 gallon bucket and a 5 gallon bucket but need to measure exactly 4 gallons of water. How do you complete the problem?
