Unbalanced balance
You have a balance whose fulcrum is not at the centre of the pans. When you put a mass m on the left hand pan, it is balanced with a mass m1 on the right pan. When you put the mass m in the right hand pan, it is balanced with a mass m2 on the left hand pan. What is m?

I should have let m1=36 and m2=49. Too late!
