[quote:post_uid0="Mister D"]from the first sack, you place 1 nugget on the scale, then two from the second sack, then three from the third sack. So, there are six nuggets in total. If sack 1 has the real gold, the scale will read 6 pounds 1 ounce (5 fool's gold at one pound each plus one real nugget at 1 pound 1 ounce). If sack 2 has the real gold, the scale will read 6 pounds 2 ounces (4 fools gold nuggets plus 2 real nuggets). If sack 3 has the real gold, the scale will read 6 pounds 3 ounces (3 fools gold, 3 real). Thus, you will know which sack has the real gold[/quote:post_uid0]
