You want exactly nine gallons of water, but you have seven-gallon bucket and five-gallon bucket. To solve this problem, we use the method of selective combination.

We should fill the seven gallon bucket and then pour it into five gallon bucket, leaving the two gallon behind. Discard five gallons and pour two gallon into five-gallon bucket and refill seven-gallon bucket. You will have a total of nine gallons.

In this case, two components combined are the five-gallon bucket and the seven gallon bucket.
