Question

Accepted Answer

The problem is to find the lightest ball among 6 balls using only 2 times of balance machine.

Divide the balls into 3 groups of 2 balls each.
Weigh the first two groups against each other.
If they balance, the lightest ball is in the third group.
If one group is lighter, take those two balls and weigh them against each other.
If they balance, the lightest ball is the one left in the third group.
If one ball is lighter, that is the lightest ball.

Accepted Answer

Divide ball into 2 parts of 3-3 each. Put both parts on either side of the balance machine.

Now consider the lighter part, take any 2 ball from it, place them on the balance machine 1 on each side.

If any of them is light in weight. That's the ball.

Else, third one, which was not put on the machine is the ball you're searching for.
