Question

An older woman has a total of 49 candles. When a candle reduces to of its original size, it gets too small for her to use, so she keeps it aside. But the older woman hates wasting things and so when she realises that she has enough of these small pieces to join together and make another candle of the same size, she joins them and uses the new candle. If she uses one candle each day, how many days would the 49 candles last?​

Answer 1

Answer:

I think 49 days match it if it is correct than tell me
