In the basement of the Italian "cantina", there are 3 small,
irregularly-shaped, wine barrels: a 12-litre one, full, and two empty
ones, which can contain up to 7 and 5 litres.
Without using any additional tool, how can you get exactly 6 litres of wine in the 7-litre barrel, and have 6 litres left in the 12-litre barrel?

Barrels 'O' Fun Puzzle Solution
There are multiple ways of solving this. One way is given below, and it's probably the fastest one. Each set of 3 numbers separated by hyphens is the amount of wine (in litres) in the 3 barrels after each "pouring operation". The 3 barrels are always in the same order: 12, 7, and 5 litres.- 12-0-0
- 5-7-0
- 5-2-5
- 10-2-0
- 10-0-2
- 3-7-2
- 3-4-5
- 8-4-0
- 8-0-4
- 1-7-4
- 1-6-5
- 6-6-0.
