It depends on which way the bottom line is facing. If the bottom line is to the right, you use the inner scale. If the bottom line is to the left, you use the outer scale.

How do you do level 9 on 100 Floors?

You match the rings with the bolts. Look carefully at the bolts, there is an inside and outside color... dark or light. If the bolt in the corresponding color is dark on the inside and dark on the outside, then tap the ring on the door until it looks the same as the bolt. Do this with all four bolt-ring combinations, and the doors will open. Just in case it is hard to tell: Upper left bolt is Dark-inside, Dark outside Upper right is Light-inside, Light outside Lower left is Light-inside, Dark outside Lower Right is Dark-inside, Light outside.
