What are the steps to using a Triple Beam Balance?
1. The objects are placed on the scale 2. Move the weights on the beams until you get the lines on the right side of the scale to match up (Start with the two heaviest, and use lightest for fine tuning) 3. Once you have balanced the scale, add the amounts on each beam to find the total mass (We read to one decimal place)
