There are 3 towns attacked by 3 dragons-x,y,z. Number of days x attack a town is equal to number of days y attacking another town. Number of days x attack is equal to half the square root of number of days z attacking a town. Number of days y attacking the town is twice the square root of z. Calculate how much days the curse of each dragon be.

Now,if we have a number of days for a dragon x

Similarly, we have b number of days for a dragon y

and we have c number of days for a dragon z

a=b

a=0.5sqrt(c)

b=2*sqrt(c)

So,we can find the number of days of a dragon z in terms of days of dragon x,y.

c=4a^2

c=b^2/4

if a=b

so if a=b=1

so,c=2 days.

The thing I cannot catch is
if a=b
then how come a=0.5sqrt(c) and b=2sqrt(c)
obviously the RHS terms do not match, but we do claim the LHS terms match, that is ambigous, please explain how?

let p be the no. of days attack by x
q=no. of days attack by y

r=no. of days attack by z
now given
p=q
p=sqrt(r)/2
q=2*sqrt(r)

on solving these equation we get
p=1
q=1
r=2
