About this creation
An old man ordered 6 gold bricks
But one of them seems to be lighter because of bad quality control.

Here please help the old man by using the balance behind (max. 2 times) to find the special gold brick.










Answer is:

1st balance : 3 vs 3 (randomly select 2 from the lighter side for the 2nd balance)
2nd balance : 1 vs 1 (if equal, the left over is the one / if either one lighter, that it is)

cool! So I shall try: you put 4 bricks on the balance, two at each side. If one side is lighter, use that two bricks again and see which one is the bad quality one. If the balance is equal go on and use the two remaining bricks to find out which one is lighter. Makes sense...at least to me ;)
