Question

I have 7 candles lit, 2 blew out . How many candles do i have left?

Answer 1

Thanks for your question. it is interesting in a way that  the final solution being asked is how many candles left

If 2 candles blew out we are still left with 7 candles out of which 5 are lit and 2 candles that are extinguished.

But still there is catch, if those 5 candles are lit longer, they will melt and we will be left with 2 candles

Depending on when it is counted, we are left with either 7 or 2 candles

Answer 2
