There are 10 bowls with many pills prepared on the table. However, it was found that the pills in one of the bowls contained more substances than they should have, so each one weighed 1 gram more than the pills in the other bowls. They cannot, therefore, be used and must be returned.

Each pill should weigh 10 grams; however, as stated, there are defective pills in one of the bowls that weigh 11 grams.

How do you determine which bowls contain defective pills by one weighing on the scales?
