Question 4

The vertical matchsticks on the scale all have the same weight. To balance the scale you need to add 1 more matchstick. Where would you place it?

View answer

In the original puzzle:
Left of balancing point: 4 + 2 + 1 + 1 = 8 units
Right of balancing point: 3 + 3 + 4 = 10 units
From the above we can see we need to add 2 more units to the left of the balancing point. This is done by placing the matchstick as shown in the solution.
