The answer is 2. It can be done by dividing them into groups of 3, 3 and 2. First Weighing: Both groups of 3 balls each. Possibility 1: One of them is heavier Second Weighing: Take any two balls from the heavier group and weigh them. Possibility 1.1: One of them heavier. That is the one. Possibility 1.2: Both are equal. The third one is the heaviest one. Possibility 2: Both groups of 3 balls each are equal in weight. Second weighing: The remaining 2 balls in the third group. One of them would surely be heavier!
