This literally cannot be solved.

The one on the left is either 7 or 8 grams, with no way to tell which it is. The one on the right is either 9 or 10 grams, and assuming 10 isn't an option since these retarded scales only have a single digit, we can assume it is 9. So the answer is either 16 or 17, but there is no way to tell which it is.

How accurate is the picture here? Is each scale weight a different amount of sugar? Are the numbers shown on the scales the numbers I'm supposed to use?

Not quite. Here's a hint.

>Which numbers would not display properly
2, 6, 8, and 0. 8 is the only one of those that would have all the other spots lit up as well, to create the illusion of a 9. Both are either showing an 8 or a 9. The one on the left, which is ADDING 1 to the actual weight, would therefore have either 7 or 8 grams, and the one on the right, which is SUBTRACTING 1, would either have a weight of 9 or 10. Which is what I said.

The display isn't on. No numbers are on the board.

The only numbers impacted by the display are 2, 6, and 8

8 would appear as 9 on the left scale
6 would appear as 5 on the right scale

There are 14 grams of sugar.

7 would also read as 8, and with the broken spot, appear as a 9. Both 7 and 8 would show up 100% identical to each other on the left scale. And where the fuck are you getting the 5 and 6 from? The right scale is also showing a 9.
If neither of them is displaying anything, then there is literally no answer to this at all, since you would literally have no numbers to work with.

Can someone just post the answer to shut this retard up

This is correct, I've seen this before.

>The right scale is also showing a 9.
The drawing is just an example

2 would be a fucked up number
6 would be a 5 (-1)
8 would be a 9 (+1)

6 + 8 = 14

here

I want to fuck her

The scales aren't off in weight by +1 or -1, the puzzle is saying that because of the broken display, the number that comes up LOOKS as if it is +1 or -1 off its actual weight.

So, if one pile of sugar weighed 6g, the number on the display would come up looking like a 5. Which means it LOOKS like its saying the sugar weighs -1 grams than it actually is.

the -1 sugar grams weighs, it LOOKS like it weighs 9 but it's actually 8
the sugar grams weighs 7, but it's actually 6
>the 9 looks sugar grams weighs
the answer is 6

What game is this from?

Lady Layton which has been out on mobile for a month or two and hits 3DS on Friday

apparently it's pretty weak though

How many seconds of oxygen was your brain deprived at birth? 7? 8? 10? There's literally no way to know.

Huh. Well the art style for the puzzles sure has gotten cute compared to the old Layton games.

its another "They failed to portray the problem good enough, aren't they clever!" bullshit problem.

I'm on chapter 3. It seems like it does a Layton 6 where the cases are pretty much separate and feel like filler. Also Lady Layton and her trio of characters are really bland tropes.

Yeah, it's pretty bland overall. I 100%'d it when it came out and to be honest, was kind of a dissapointment, still good though. It also had enough interesting puzzles for the puzzle thread I did last month.

Got an archive link?

Sorry bro, I don't. Have this picture from my folder and check the archives, maybe you'll get to it easily since I edited all of them myself.
