Candles
Before Christmas, Eva bought two cylindrical candles - red and green. Red was 1 cm longer than green. She lit a red candle on Christmas Day at 5:30 PM, lit a green candle at 7:00 PM, and left them on fire until it burned. At 9:30 PM, both candles were the same height. Green finished at 23:00, and red at 23:30.
