Can you figure out how to make the balance even? If 2 diamonds = 1 circle and 2 squares = 3 circles, what do you need to balance out 1 square?

Can you figure out how to make the balance even? Equations to solve problem: If2 d = 1 c and 2 s = 3 c then 2 s = 3(2 d) 2 s = 6 d, or 1 s = 3 d 1s = (d + d) + d, therefore 1s = (1c) + d If 2 diamonds = 1 circle and 2 squares = 3 circles, what do you need to balance out 1 square?
