A man has two ropes of varying thickness, those two ropes are not identical, they aren’t the same density nor the same length nor the same width. Each rope burns in 60 minutes. How can he measure 45 mins using only these two ropes.
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.
