Alright. Heres a little logic question.. need to get your thinking caps on. There are no trick answers or shit like that.. Post your answers..

You are in a room with a set of weighing scales, not those Justice scales.. i mean the kitchen scales with a dial on the front. also you have 3 sacks of Gold. Two sacks contain nuggets of fool's gold, and one sack contains nuggets of real gold.

each nugget of fools gold weigh 1 Pound each... each Nugget of real gold weighs 1 Pound and 1 Ounce.

Using only ONE weigh of the scales... and using any combination of nuggets.. how can you guarantee that you name which bag has the real gold in it
