It's the first brain teaser in our brand-new series! Finding the solution will take some mental muscle, but you're up for the challenge.
To kick off the series, I’ve chosen an old favorite in which you will try to avoid being ripped off by making clever use of a scale. It hits the sweet spot, difficulty-wise. The solution will not be immediately obvious to most people, and yet if you chew on it for a little while, clarity will come. Discuss your thoughts openly in the comments section, but be warned that spoilers might lurk there.
Not so luckily, the scale’s battery is dying and after one use it will conk out. How can you identify the bag with the heavier coins using only aweighing on the scale? You are allowed to take coins out of their bags, but you only get to read one number from the scale.Like many great puzzles, this sounds impossible at first.
