Question:
The boiled EGG!!!!!!!?
Suppose you want to cook an egg for exactly 3 minutes. You have only a 5 minute hourglass timer and a 2 minute hourglass timer. Using these 2 timers, how can you boil the egg for exactly 3 minutes?
Answers:
tip both hourglasses at the same time, but don't start the egg. when the 2 min. runs out, there are still 3 mins in the 5 min hourglass. that's when you start the egg
