Puzzle
- US Version
Four types of jams are combined into pairs and placed in the four boxes below.
Use the scale to determine the relative weights of each type of jam, and label them from lightest to heaviest, 1 to 4.

You have eight jars of jam of four different types, depicted by the different colours. The different types of jam vary in weight. Your jars have been put into boxes in pairs.

Too bad!
You need to be methodical in how you weigh the jars of jam.
- UK Version
Too bad.
There's a certain knack to knowing which boxes to weigh together.
Correct
- US Version
Sweet!
Blue > Yellow > Green > Red
Comparing the red/blue box with the red/green shows that blue > green.
Comparing the red/blue box with the blue/green box shows that green > red.
And finding that the yellow/yellow box is equal to the blue/green box tells you that yellow is between blue and green!
- UK Version
Well done!
Starting with the heaviest, the order is: blue, yellow, green, red.
By weighing the red-blue box with the red-green box, you can work out that blue jam is heavier than green jam. Weighing red-blue with blue-green tells you that green jam is heavier than red jam. Finally, by ascertaining that yellow-yellow is the same weight as blue-green, you can work out that the weight of yellow jam is between that of blue jam and green jam.
