Two candles of equal lengths and of different thickness are
there. The thicker one will last of six hours. The thinner 2
hours less than the thicker one. Ramesh light the two
candles at the same time. When he went to bed he saw the
thicker one is twice the length of the thinner one. For
how long did Ramesh lit two candles .
Answer Posted / shanmugaraj
2 hours.
because,
thick = 6 part
thin = 4 part
after 1st hour the ratio will be 5:3
after 2nd hour the ratio will be 4:2
hence 4:2 ie., twice more than thinner. this happened
after 2hrs.
so 2hrs is the answer
