Answer:

9.375 inches burned in 7.5 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how much burns in an hour, we need to divided 55 by 44, which, when calculated, is 1.25 inches

So 1.25 inches of the candle burns each hour

So now we multiply 1.25 by 7.5

1.25 x 7.5 = 9.375

Thus, the amount of candle that burned in 7.5 hours is 9.375 inches
