Question

Elton is a candle maker. Each 15 cm long candle he makes burns evenly for 6 hours if Elton makes a 45 cm long candle, how long would it burn

Answer 1

A 45 cm long candle would burn for 18 hours.

Answer 2

The candle would burn for 18 hours.

45 / 15 = 3

If the candle is three times longer than normal, it will burn three times longer than normal.

3 x 6 = 18
