Pour the 5-liter pot into the 6-liter pot until the 6-liter pot is full. At this point, there are 4 liters of water left in the 5 liter pot.

Pour all the water out of the 6-liter pot, and pour the remaining 4 liters of water from the 5-liter pot into the 6-liter pot. At this time, there are only 4 liters of water in the 6-liter pot.

Fill the 5-liter pot again and pour into the 6-liter pot until the 6-liter pot is full. At this time, there are only 3 liters of water left in the 5-liter pot.

6. The sum of four digits and its digits is 1972. Find this four-digit number

Answer: Because it is a four-digit number and the sum is 1972, the thousands of this four-digit number must be 1, because it cannot be 0 or greater than 1.

So this number is 1xxx.

The remaining three numbers are 1972, 9+7+2= 18, 18+0 = 19. So the number in the hundredth place can only be 9, because it is impossible to get 19xx from other numbers.

Then let one digit be x, ten digits be y, and both x and y are integers from 0 to 9.

Then there are:1900+10y+x+y+10 =1972, and 1 1y+2x=62.

X=(62- 1 1y)/2 If you put the number from 0 to 9 in the position of Y, you will find that it can only be y=4 and x=9.

So it is 1949.
