365. Water and Jug Problem

Medium

You are given two jugs with capacities jug1Capacity and jug2Capacity liters. There is an infinite amount of water supply available. Determine whether it is possible to measure exactly targetCapacity liters using these two jugs.

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

Operations allowed:

Example 1:

Input: jug1Capacity = 3, jug2Capacity = 5, targetCapacity = 4

Output: true

Explanation: The famous Die Hard example

Example 2:

Input: jug1Capacity = 2, jug2Capacity = 6, targetCapacity = 5

Output: false

Example 3:

Input: jug1Capacity = 1, jug2Capacity = 2, targetCapacity = 3

Output: true

Solution

public class Solution {
    private int gcd(int n1, int n2) {
        if (n2 == 0) {
            return n1;
        }
        return gcd(n2, n1 % n2);
    }

    public boolean canMeasureWater(int jug1, int jug2, int target) {
        if (jug1 + jug2 < target) {
            return false;
        }
        int gcd = gcd(jug1, jug2);
        return target % gcd == 0;
    }
