Roamin' Candles (Posted on 2024-07-25)

Suppose you have two candles of the same height but of different widths. One takes four hours to burn all the way while the other takes 7 hours.

Assuming both the candles burn down at steady rates, how long will it taken before one candle is twice as tall as the other?
