He uses his mouth to weigh the 1st and 2nd bag of gold and then the one bag is heavier so he checks the rest by his mouth and picks the other ones with his mouth and checks for the heaviest ones!!!

Place 3 marbles on each tray.
- If the first weighing doesn't balance, remove all the marbles from the lighter side, and place one marble on each tray from the heavier tray. The heavier side is the 1.1 ounce marble, but if they balance, then the marble from the heavier tray from the first weighing that was not weighed in the second weighing is the heavier one(1.1).
- If the marbles balance on the first weighing, remove the marbles from the trays, and place 2 of the remaining unweighed marbles on the trays, one on each tray. If one is heavier, it is the heavier marble(1.1), but if they balance, the remaining unweighed marble is the heavier one.
MARBLES ARE THE BAGS OF GOLD!!!!

he weighs the first bag, and it weighs wat he knows is not right (way too light) than he weighs the next bag and it is sooo much heavier, so he knows the second bag is right
