Take this question as challange --> "Candle 'A' takes just four hours to burn it..

Answer / atul

If both candles are of height x.
Suppose both candles were burnt for t hrs.
First one can burn for 4 hrs.
First one can burn for x/4 in 1 hr.
First one can burn for t*x/4 in t hr.

Balance = (x-t*x/4)
second one can burn in 2 hrs.
second one can burn in x/2 in 1 hr
Second one can burn for t*x/2 in t hr.

Balance = (x-t*x/2)

as per given condition

Balance = (x-t*x/4) = 2*(x-t*x/2)
or
1-t/4 = 2-t
t-t/4 =1
3*t/4=1

so t= 4/3 hrs

Take this question as challange --> "Candle 'A' takes just four hours to burn it..

Answer / sheeba manuel

Since both the candles are of the same height, and
candle B takes 2 hours to burn fully means, the time
taken for candle B to be just half of candle
A is 1 hour. (Half of candle A = half of candle B,
b'cos they have the same height)
Therefore answer is 1 hour

There is a lucky draw held every day. If there is a winning number eg. 1876, then all possible numbers like 1867 ,1687,1768 etc are the numbers that match irrespective of the position of the digits. Thus all these numbers qualify fr the lucky draw prize. Assume there is no zero digit in any numbers. Write a program to show all the possible winning numbers if a "winningnumber" is passed as an argument to the function. i want a solution in c/c++ language
