Take this question as challange --> "Candle 'A' takes just
four hours to burn it completely and candle 'B'
takes 2 hrs. The girth of candle 'A' is just double of
candle 'B' with the same height. If Ram lit both the
candles in the same time and after how long time the length
of Candle 'B' would be just half of candle 'A'?
Answer Posted / 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
