Bingo.......
Try this one.....
You have 10 stacks of 10 coins. They appear to be identical, however, one of the stacks are fake. The real gold coins weigh 1 gr. Each. The fake coins weigh 1.1 gr each. You have a digital scale that you can use only 1 time. You can weigh as many coins from any stacks as you want but only 1 time. You set your coins on the scale and the scale prints out the weight. How do you determine which stack is fake?

if your scaling 10 coins if it's over 10 grams trash it ...btw the seahawks lost .. and it will be the BEARS to take the win..even though i hope the Bears loose
Don't worry the bears will lose and then they will be just like the seahawks. Losers for the 2006 Season.FishSkins;677234; said:

Take 1 coin from the 1st stack, 2 from the 2nd, 3 from the 3rd, ..., and 10 from the 10th stack and weigh them all together. If the weight of these coins is 55.1 grams then you know it is the 1st stack since 1.1 + 2 + 3 + 4 + 5 + 6 + 7 + 8 + 9 + 10 = 55.1. If it is 55.2 then it is the 2nd stack, 55.3 is the 3rd, etc.. If the coins weigh 56 grams then it is the 10th stack which holds the 1.1g coins.
Correct.........
Okay I have one more.........then some of you have to post some........
A bus driver was heading down a street in Colorado. He went right past a stop sign without stopping, he turned left where there was a "no left turn" sign, and he went the wrong way on a one-way street. Then he went on the left side of the road past a cop car. Still - he didn't break any traffic laws. Why not?
