andle to burn down to a height of 1.3 inches?
1 answer:
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
