1. The classic "Three Jugs" problem: Two friends who have an eight-quart jug of water wish to share it evenly. They also have two empty jars, one holding five quarts, the other three. How can they each measure exactly 4 quarts of water?

2. 3 people carry 5 pails (each with capacity 8L) to a place where there are 3 springs. One of the springs gives 2L/minute and the other two give 1L/minute. It is not possible to use one spring to fill two pails simultaneously. It takes less than 2 minutes and more than 1 minute to take a pail from one spring to another. What is the shortest time it takes for them to fill all five pails? How?

1. Sally is thinking of a 6-digit number. The sum of the digits is 43. And only two of the following three statements about the number are true: (1) it's a square number. (2) it's a cube number, and (3) the number is under 500000. What number was Sally thinking of?

2. This is a variation on a classic "guess the numbers" puzzle: 

I think of 2 single-digit numbers from 1 to 9. I tell Peter Griffin their product and Lois Griffin their sum.

Peter: "I don't know the numbers."

Lois: "I don't know the numbers."

Peter: "I don't know the numbers."

Lois: "I don't know the numbers."

Peter: "I don't know the numbers."

Lois: "I don't know the numbers."

Peter: "I don't know the numbers."

Lois: "I don't know the numbers."

Peter: "Now I know the numbers."

What are the numbers?
