You are given two jugs with capacities x and y litres. There is an infinite amount of water supply available. You need to determine whether it is possible to measure exactly z litres using these two jugs.

If z liters of water is measurable, you must have z liters of water contained within one or both buckets by the end.

Operations allowed:

• Fill any of the jugs completely with water.
• Empty any of the jugs.
• Pour water from one jug into another till the other jug is completely full or the first jug itself is empty.

Example 1: (From the famous "Die Hard" example)

Input: x = 3, y = 5, z = 4Output: True

Example 2:

Input: x = 2, y = 6, z = 5Output: False

Solution:

public class Solution {    public boolean canMeasureWater(int x, int y, int z) {        if (x+y < z) return false;                if (x==z || y==z || x+y==z) return true;                return z%GCD(x,y)==0;            }        public int GCD(int x, int y){        while (x%y!=0){            int temp = x;            x = y;            y = temp%y;        }        return y;    }}
