    Mr. Z plays gambling games to relax without expectations of winning, betting small fractions of his money on games where losses are guaranteed. He plays continuously without breaks, betting proportional amounts based on his current funds. If it takes him 4 hours to lose half his money at one table and 2 hours at another, how long can he play at both tables simultaneously if starting with Rs. 1000 and quitting when only Rs. 10 remains?

    Mr.Z likes to play gambling tables just for relaxation.

    He never expects to win and he


    doesn’t, so he selects games in which losses are a given small fraction of the money bet. He
    plays steadily without a break, and the sizes of his bets are proportional to the money he has.
    If at gambling table-1 it takes him 4 hours to lose half of his money and at gambling table-2 it
    takes 2 hours to lose half of his money, how long can he play both games simultaneously if
    he starts with Rs.1000 and quits when he has Rs.10 left?
