Answer Posted / rajesh
Both are Equal length: L
Thick's burning rate: L/6
Thin's burning rate: L/4
After X hours (at bed time) of burning, remaining lengths:
Thick: L-(LX/6) and Thin: L-(LX/4)
But, at X hours, thick is twice as long as thin. i.e.:
L-(LX/6)=2[L-(LX/4)]
1-(X/6)=2-(X/2)
Solve for X and get 3.
