ANSWER:
Water starts flowing from container 9.
From 9, water can go either left to 8 or right to 7.
Left path (towards 8):
- The pipe leading to vessels 1 and 2 is blocked.
- So, water cannot go to vessels 1 or 2.
Right path (towards 7):
The water flows to vessel 7, where it has the option to go left to vessel 3, straight to 6, or right to bucket 5.
The outlet from vessel 6 to bucket 4 is blocked, so the water cannot flow there.
The outlet from vessel 7 to bucket 5 is blocked, so the water cannot flow there.
The water flows directly from vessel 7 into the bucket 3.
So Vessel 3 fills up first.
