Question 19

We have two candles of different lengths and thicknesses. The longer and thinner candle burns out completely in $3{,}5$ hours, and the shorter and thicker one in $5$ hours. The candles were lit at the same time, and after $2$ hours of burning their lengths were equal. By what percent is the thinner candle longer than the thicker one?
