Hi all, 

here is the solution to puzzle 2....courtesy Lalit Singh

this shows the series of transfers

24 ounce | 11 ounce | 5 ounce
24               0             0 initially
13             11             0
13               6             5 (nw transfer 5 in biggest 1)
18               6             0   
18               1             5 (again do the same)
23               1             0
23               0             1 (transfer 1 in smallest 1)
12              11             1 (transfer 11 from biggest to medium 1)

Cheers
