Two candles of same height are lighted at the same time. The first is consumed in 3 hours and second in 2 hours. Assuming that each candles burns at a constant rate, in how many hours after being lighted, the ratio between the first and second candles becomes 2:1? A) 2 hour B) 2.5 hour C) 4 hour D) 1.5 hour E) None of these

Last answer: Answer: D Height of both candles are same i.e. h First one takes 3 hours to burn completely, so in one hour = h/3 Similarly second one will burn in one hour = h/2 Let after t time, ratio between their height is 2:1 so, ... given 2:1, h - t*(h/3) / h - t*(h/2) = 2/1 Solving we get t = 1.5
