To Identify The Counterfiet Coin!

Why it was asked to? 

1. Make a group of 3 coins each. Weigh these groups against each other.

2. If both groups weigh equal then weigh remaining 2 against each other. Heavier coin would be easily identified.

3. If one of group is heavier, then take out coins of this group.The counterfeit coin is among them.

4. Now weigh 2 of 3 coins of this group against each other.

5. If both are equal then obviously third one is counterfeit.

6. If one of them is heavier then obviously that one is counterfeit.
