The point is not to prove the rumour but to find out who cheated. Take one ring from the first, two from the second and so forth and measure them together. If the total is missing one gram then the first one cheated, two grams then the second one cheated, etc.

He needs to punish the guy who made a scale that can only be used once

[keithstuart]

So this king can afford to commission all these rings, but can’t afford new scales

[erumaaro]

answer: give the blacksmiths the number from 1 to 10. Take from each blacksmith the same number of rings as the number he was assigned (eg. take 4 rings from blacksmith #4). Weight all 55 rings together. If no one has cheated, the scale would read 550g. Subtract the actual weight and the difference in grams is the number of to the cheating blacksmith.

The king can determine which goldsmith cheated him by using a single weighing. He should take a different number of rings from each goldsmith and place them all together on the scale. Here's how it can be done:

1. From the first goldsmith, he should take one ring.
2. From the second goldsmith, he should take two rings.
3. From the third goldsmith, he should take three rings.
4. This pattern continues until he takes ten rings from the tenth goldsmith.

In total, the king will have 1 + 2 + 3 + ... + 10 = 55 rings on the scale.

If none of the goldsmiths had cheated, the total weight of these 55 rings should be 55 * 10 = 550 grams.

Now, the king weighs the 55 rings together. If the weight is less than 550 grams, the difference will tell him which goldsmith is the cheater.

For example, if the total weight is 549 grams, then the difference is 1 gram, which means that the first goldsmith is the cheater because there is 1 ring from him (1 * 1 = 1). If the total weight is 548 grams, then the difference is 2 grams, which means that the second goldsmith is the cheater because there are 2 rings from him (2 * 1 = 2), and so on.

This method allows the king to identify the cheater with just a single weighing.

Sounds like the king should have used some of the gold to buy a scale that works more than once.

[philwhatever]

Keep adding to the scale til its not a division of 10. If you dont remove the item on it its still one use!

[InteractiveDNA]

Simple to answer! Each goldsmith place on the plate 1 ring and the king place an object that weight 10 grams with a scale with a weight of 100 grams. Now, the king can find out witch Goldsmith stole, example, if the first goldsmith takes his ring off the scaler, and if it is 10 grams the scaler goes to 100 gram even. If the second goldsmith takes his ring and the scaler still not level equal... he now know that the scale is off set and he is the goldsmith that stole the grams. It is all about balance. If the scale is equal in both plates, the ring is 10 grams and if you remove one ring that is 9 grams the scale will be off balance.

[fuzy]

well, first, the king needs to get a more reliable scale😂😂😂

[Wilkaholic]

The king should announce to them that his preference has now shifted from 10grams to 9grams. The Goldsmith who smiles is the traitor 😂😂😂

[NightRaydes]

The king can afford all those rings, but not a new scale?

[TheKnightOperator]

Easy... Put the smiths in a line 1-10. #1 puts one ring in the pot, #2 puts two rings in and so on. Weigh the entire batch once. The batch should weigh 550g, if you did your math right. If its off by 3 grams, its smith #3, if its 10 grams off its smith #10 and so on.

What do I win Johnny?🎉

Check to see which of the goldsmiths is related to the scale maker. ⚖️

[pauleye]

Lydia is the reason for watching these videos. She is absolutely adorable.

[stuartherriot]

I hope he kept a receipt for the scales, 😆 🤣 😂.

[STARFIRESOLAR]

I don't know but she is truly beautiful. No nose rings, no lip rings, crazy colored hair or tattoos. Priceless!

[rexwysocki]

Pitch the broken scale, put the scale maker in stocks, get a narrow glass half-full of water, and check by displacement. The goldsmith whose rings displace less water becomes moat alligator food. (19.3 grams of gold is one cubic centimeter, so for 10 rings you’d be looking at a noticeable difference…about 1/2 cc).

[bonsaibean]

Goodness. That white outfit is really something.

[cond.oriano]

I don't listen to the test, I just stared at her 😃

[johnfrasca]

Each goldsmith puts his ring on the scale one at a time. The scale should see an increase of 10 grams each time a ring is placed on scale. The one that does not add 10 grams is the cheater.
