There are three pairs of balls -
red, white, and blue. In each pair one ball is a little bit heavier
than another one. All the heavy balls weigh the same, and all the
light balls weigh the same. Also you have a balance scale.
Now, in just two weighings you have to determine the light and the
heavy balls in each pair. How can it be done? |
