The two pennies being chosen from the remaining three are weighed against each other. If one is heavy there it is, if they are equal the left over penny is it. Hope this helps. There are ONLY two measurements being used. The first with the two sets of three, the final with one on one from a set of three.

How do you make a dollar out of 53 coins?

You can figure this out by experimenting a bit. Obviously, to have that many coins, most of the coins must be pennies. Also, the number of pennies must be a multiple of 5, since all coins larger than pennies are multiples of 5. If you use 45 pennies and 8 nickels, you have the right amount of coins, but not enough money. The solution turns out to be 45 pennies, 4 nickels, and 4 dimes.
