Thin candle melts 3/4 in 3 hours leaving 1/4
Where as in the same time thick candle melts 3/6 leaving 3/6 which is 1/2. Now thick candle is exactly twice than the thin candle.
Or via modeling:
We need to find time at which the length of the thin candle is half the thick candle. Let x be the time. Thin candle melts at 1/4 an hour and thick candle melts at 1/6 an hour. In x hours they melt at x/4 and x/6 respectively. What’s left will be 1 – x/4 and 1 – x/6. We need to find x at which :
2 * (1 – (x/4)) = 1 – (x/6)
This equation results in x = 3

Ques:- The price of sugar increases by 20%, by what % should a housewife reduce the consumption of sugar so that expenditure on sugar can be same as before ?(a) 15%(b) 16.66%(c) 12%(d) 9%
Recent Answer : Added by Rk On 2021-08-25 14:15:42:
(b) 16.66%
Earlier for ₹x we could purchase y gm of sugar.
Now we pay ₹1.2x for y gm of sugar
(As there was an increase in price so, x + 20%x = 1.2x)
At current rates for ₹x you can purchase y/1.2 gm of sugar
So the reduced consumption is y-(y/1.2)
Percentage change = (reduced consumption/ original consumption ) *100
That is (0.2/1.2) *100 = 16.66% (approx)
