Math trivia question?
Out of 101 coins, 50 are counterfeit and differ from the original ones in weight by 1 gram. You pick a coin out of those 101 coins. You have a scale that shows the difference in weights between the two sides of the scale. Can you check in one weighing if that coin is counterfeit?
