01 · How to explore

Make the idea your own

  1. 1Count the identical boxes on the left.
  2. 2Read the known mass on the right.
  3. 3Split the total equally. The scale stays balanced.
02 · Take it further

Explain the experiment

When the goal is met: Each box represents 4 units: dividing both sides by the box count preserves equality.
