You have two ropes. Each rope takes exactly 60 minutes to completely burn, but they do NOT burn at a consistent rate. Using only these two ropes and a lighter, how can you measure exactly 45 minutes?  

Light both ends of Rope 1 and one end of Rope 2 at the same time.

  • Rope 1 will finish in 30 minutes.
  • Immediately light the other end of Rope 2.
  • Rope 2 has 30 minutes of burn-time remaining, but now it's burning from both ends, so it takes 15 more minutes.

Total = 45 minutes. 🔥
