My PM inbox is always open to receive your suggestions though. Point value has now gone up to 2 for each question I use here.
hmmm, so if you use one, I'm assuming I'm not allowed to participate in that one, so If I submitted a question and somebody above me answered it, they would add yet another point to the lead they have over me!Quote:

At this pace, I'm gaining a 1/2 point on you a day, I wonder how long that means it will take me to grab the lead???
I'm coming!!
Ohhh, that's sad that you actually took the time to figure that out. :DQuote:

Using a balance scale, how could you determine which is the light coin in just two weighings?
I believe there are 2 possible answers to this, so each is worth 3 points.
__________
Option 1:
Place 3 coins on each side of the balance. If the scale is even then the 7th coin not weighed is the lesser one. If the scale is uneven, take the less weighted side and reweigh two of the coins. Same scenario. If they are even, the one left out is the lesser, otherwise you could tell between the two on the scale.
Option 2:
You break the seven coins into a group of three and a group of four. First you weigh the four coins, two on each side of the balance. If the light coin is in those four, the balance will be uneven. You would then take the lighter side and just weigh those two coins to find the light one. If the four coins happen to balance out exactly, you know the light coin is in the group of three you didn't weigh. You then pick two of those three to weigh. If they are even the third coin is the light one. If they are uneven, the light side of the scale is the light coin.
