032 - Three, Four and Five

Detective Kent Dockland attends at Logidyne Labs to interview Jacki Renquist about the work she's been doing with Hillary Black.

However, he finds Jacki busy in the chemicals storeroom.

"I don't have time for you today, Dockland," Jacki snaps. "I need to measure out four quarts of umbrafan, but one of the idiot new recruits broke my measuring containers. All I have is the barrel of umbrafan, a three quart container, and a five quart container."

"That's a fairly trivial problem, ma'am," said Dockland stoically, and then explained to her how to solve it. "And now maybe you have time for an interview?"

How did Jacki measure out four quarts of umbrafan?
