You have 8 balls with one heavier than the rest, what's the minimum number of weighs needed to determine the heaver ball on a scale? Split up the balls into groups of 3 as this group you can determine the heavier ball with one weighing. So if you start with the group of 3 and 3 then you simply need 2 weighing at most, else it's also 2 if you have to check the remaining 2 balls as the scale would be even with 3 balls.
