Not sure if this is the easiest way but here goes.

Call 10 litre can A, 7 litre B, 3 litre C.

pour A into B
B into C - A now has 3, B 4, C 3
C into A, B into C - A=6, B=1, C=3
C into A, B into C - A=9,B=0,C=1
A into B - A=2, B=7, C=1
B into C - A=2, B=5, C=2
C into A

A & B now both have 5

Typo alert! Step 6 should read B into C - A=2, B=5, C=3
