How can you measure 45 minutes.
Burning rope problem 45 minutes.
Total time elapsed since starting.
When rope 1 finishes burning it will be exactly 30 minutes.
Each takes exactly 60 minutes to burn.
He will burn one of the rope at both the ends and the second rope at one end.
After 30 minutes rope a will be completely burned up and there will be 30 minutes of rope b left.
Burn rope 1 from both end and at same time burn rope 2 from one end.
How can he measure 45 mins using only these two ropes.
A logic brain teaser.
You can light one or both ropes at one or both ends at the same time.
You have two ropes.
It will burn up in 15 minutes.
They are made of different material so even though they take the same amount of time to burn they burn at separate rates.
He can t cut the one rope in half because the ropes are non homogeneous and he can t be sure how long it will burn.
You have two ropes that each take an hour to burn but burn at inconsistent rates.
They are made of different material so even though they take the same amount of time to burn they burn at separate rates.
Each rope burns in 60 minutes.
Total time elapsed since starting the ropes on fire.
