Answer:

4 1/2 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

first i subtracted 1.3 from 4 and got 2.7

Next i just multiplied 0.6 by random numbers ubtil i got something close to 2.7

i ended up with 2.4 when I multiplied 0.6 by 4

it still is .3 short

since it takes an hour for the candle to burn, then if you cut it in half, that means 30 minutes

therfore, 4.5 hours
