THIS WEEK'S RIDDLE - "GOLD RING SACS"

in #riddle7 years ago (edited)




... Hi Steemers;

This week's riddle is "Gold Ring Sacs". Please comment your answers...

One guy goes to a jewellery shop and orders 10 sacs of each have exactly same rings in it and each ring is 10 grams.

He comes back next week but found out that the jeweler is a dishonest seller and cheated in one sac; he changed all the 10 rings in that particular sac to 9 grams each.

The guy has only one chance to find which sac is the cheated one and he can use only a scale which is not a double scale. He has only one chance to weigh one thing...He uses the scale one time and tells exactly which sac the jeweler cheated on.

What did he weigh, how did he find the exact sac?

I hope you enjoy solving the riddle:)

Hey!
If there is 10 each in every sacs, i found it :)
You should take one ring from first sac, take two rings from second, take three rings from third... take ten rings from tenth.
It must be 55gr. total. For example if 3 grams missing from total, third sac is cheated :)

Hey Sinvester, great job! I am happy that you solved it but i am sad that first person replied solved the riddle:):)
