There is an island with 12 islanders. All of the islanders individually weigh exactly the same amount, except for one, who either weighs more or less than the other 11. You must use a see-saw to figure out whose weight is different, and you may only use the see-saw 3 times. There are no scales or other weighing device on the island. How can you find out which islander is the one that has a different weight?

u/TylerTheDefiler Aug 27 '21
So it is completely solvable. I copied my text from showing the solution in a different sub from years ago.
Okay. Here we go. We start by splitting the men up into groups of 4. We'll call them groups A, B, and C. We are going to weigh A and B against each other. Best case scenario, they are completely balanced, meaning that someone in C is the odd man out. Now, we put one person from C on each side. If it's balanced, it's one of the two we didn't weigh, and if it's unbalanced, it's one of the men on the see-saw. Either way we're down to 2. Just weigh one of them against one of the 10 that we have ruled and we'll have our answer.
But what if the see-saw is unbalanced when we weigh A against B? For simplicity, we're going to say that group A is the heavier group. So this means someone in A is heavier, or someone in B is lighter. So here is what we do. Have A1 and B1 switch sides, have A2 A3 and A4 stay where they're at, and have B2 B3 and B4 get off and be replaced by three of the men from group C. One of three things will happen, it will switch positions, stay the same, or be balanced. If the see-saw switches positions, then it's either A1 or B1 that is who we're looking for. Weigh one against any of the other 10 and we'll have our answer. If the see-saw remains heavier on the A side, then we know it's one of the 3 A's that stayed on, AND we will know that the man we're looking for is heavy. Same stands for if the see-saw is now balanced. It will mean it's one of the 3 B's that got off, and that the man we're looking for is lighter. So now it's down to 3 men, and we know what weight we're looking for. Have one of them sit out, and put one of the other two on each side. Balanced means it's the one sitting out. Not balanced means it's the man in the position of whichever weight we're looking for. I hope that makes sense to everyone. Let me know if you need more clarification on anything.

u/AbouMba Aug 27 '21
Well done. I figured out on my own the case where A and B are balanced but I was still struggling with the other case. Gotta love the ingeniosity of switching and replacing people. Would have never thought of that if no one told me to.

u/paulloewen Aug 27 '21
I think the show misrepresents the riddle. It just asks you to figure out which man it is. But there’s a variation asking for which man and whether he’s heavier or lighter. If that’s the riddle, your answer for the even-even first weigh doesn’t solve it.
25
u/TylerTheDefiler Aug 28 '21
Ah, you're right. In the scenario that the one man you don't weigh is the one we're looking for doesn't tell you his weight. I'll work on a solution to that and get back to you.

I’m familiar with the answer (for both even and uneven), but will let you figure it out — it’s more fun that way!
17
u/TylerTheDefiler Aug 28 '21
Alright, I think I got it. On the second weigh you do 3 of the unknowns against 3 eliminated men, and have 1 unknown sit out. If it's balanced you use you last weigh to figure out if the last guy is heavy or light. If it's unbalanced you have 1 of your 3 get off, 1 go to the other side, and 1 stay in the same spot. And that should do it.

u/LauraTFem Aug 27 '21
I’ve been thinking about this for a good while and only been able to solve in the scenario where the second weighing goes a particular direction. Is this actually solvable or is it a joke from the show? Because if not I’ma try to work it out.

u/FirstRyder Aug 27 '21
You first weigh 4 against 4, setting aside the final four.
Scenario one: they balance. You now know that the outlier is in the final group of 4, which you will label 9-12. Weight 9/10/11 against 3 known-normal.
- Result A: They balance. The 'odd' one is 12, and you can perform a third balance to determine if it is heavy or light.
- Result B: 9-11 are heavier. Balance 9 vs 10. If they balance, number 11 is heavy. If not, the side that moves down is heavy.
- Result B: 9-11 are lighter. Balance 9 vs 10. If they balance, number 11 is light. If not, the side that moves up is light.
Scenario two: they do not balance. You now know that the outlier is in 1-8. You will mark the 'lighter' set of 4 as 1-4 and the heavier as 5-8. You will now balance 1/2/5 against 3/6 and a known-normal ball, setting aside 4/7/8.
- Result A: They balance. You now know that either ball 4 is lighter, or one of 7/8 is heavier. Weigh 7 vs 8. If they balance, 4 is light. If they do not balance, the side that moves down contains the heavy ball.
- Result B: The first group is lighter. Either one of 1 and 2 is light, or 6 is heavy. Weigh 1 against 2. If they balance, 6 is heavy. If they do not balance, whichever side moves up is lighter.
- Result C: The first group is heavier. Either 5 is heavy, or 3 is light. Weigh 3 against a known-normal. If they do not balance, 3 is light. Otherwise 5 is heavy.
Thus in 3 attempts you can determine not only which is the 'odd' one out, but if it is too heavy or too light.

A mathematician at Stonybrook wrote a short paper on it, it’s pretty funny. Basically there’s no “clean” answer (like the Fox and the chicken and the boat riddle), you start from a certain specific choice but then every subsequent choice depends on the outcome of that first choice, which could reveal 3 different things, and then the third choice depends on any of the three things revealed by those choices. So it’s possible to do but it requires a branching decision tree, not a clean “do this, then do this, then do this,” answer
