- nothing at all except the use of the weighing scale. Put 3 eggs on each side, if they balance, all eggs are good,the bad egg is in the last set of 3. If one set is lighter,
it has the bad egg.
Take the set of 3 with the bad egg, weigh 2 of the 3. If one is lighter, it is the bad egg, if they are the same, the last egg is bad. I'm guessing you mean without breaking it since I don't see that as a parameter.
I'll think about it....
Can he put the eggs in water to see if they float?
