Weights
Thanks
scale
Answer:
Remove
1
weight from the 1st bag, 2 weights from the 2nd bag , 3 weights from
the 3rd
bag etc.
Now weigh all those coins.
If all the bags weigh 16 ounces you will have 55 ounces
(10+9+8+7+6+5+4+3+2+1).
Any amount in excess of the 55 ounces will determine which bag contains
the 17 ounces
(two ounces over = bag #2 ,if it is 7 ounces over = bag #7 etc)
