This week is Hanukkah and a time to light candles on the menorah for eight straight days.  I asked my friend to watch the candle she lit last night.  She said her candle was 6 inches long and it burned half an inch every 15 minutes.  At that rate, how long would it take for the candle to completely burn down.
Show your work.
