If i had a three minute eggtimer and a five minute eggtimer and i need to boil an egg for seven minutes how would you do this?
I would use my watch, or the timer function of my microwave. Or you can start both timers at the same moment, before putting the egg in the water. When the 3-minute timer ends, put the egg in. This leaves 2 minutes on the 5-minute timer, assuming both timers are relatively accurate. When the 5-minute timer ends, re-set it again for 5 minutes, and you will have your 7 minute egg when the timer ends.

With a seven minuet and a four minuet egg timer How do you boil an egg for nine minuets?
Use the fact that 4 and 7 have no common prime factors. If you run both timers at the same time, restarting each one whenever it rings, then sooner or later the seven-minute timer will go off two minutes after the four-minute timer did - and then you're in business. In detail: m0: start both timers m4: timer 4 rings, restart it m7: timer 7 rings, restart it m8: timer 4 rings, restart it m12: timer 4 rings, start cooking the egg m14: timer 7 rings, restart it m21: timer 7 rings, take out the egg. The egg went in at minute 12 and came out at minute 21 - nine minutes of cooking. This works because the 7-minute timer rang two minutes after the 4-minute timer did; the seven-minute timer times the last stretch. You can also make the 4-minute timer time the last stretch, and this is actually quicker (I just realized): m0: start both timers m4: timer 4 rings, restart it m7: timer 7 rings, put in the egg m8: timer 4 rings, restart it m12: timer 4 rings, restart it m16: timer 4 rings, take out the egg The egg went in at minute 7 and came out at minute 16, which means it cooked for nine minutes.
If I had a three minute eggtimer and a five minute eggtimer and I need to boil an egg for seven minutes how would I do this?
Got a really long way to do it:1) start both timers at the same time.2) when the 3 minute one runs out lay the 5 minute one on its side to stop it (this gives you 2 mins left in 5 min one).3) start the 3 min one at the same time as turning the 5 min back up to finish the remaining 2 mins.3) when the 5 min one has finished its 2 mins, turn the 3 min on on its side (leaving 1 min one side and 2 mins the other)4) finally you can then use the 5 min one completely, then once that runs out, turn the 3 min one so the most sand is at the top- giving you 2 mins, and 7 mins in total. Phew!or:buy a watch!

What temp. to boil an egg?
Boiling an egg takes a while. Once the water starts to boil and the eggs are inside the boiling water, let the eggs boil for about 5 to 10 minutes. Careful, if they boil for too long, they might crack. Alternatively, bring the eggs and water to a boil. Remove from the heat, cover, and let sit for 25 minutes. Then, dump the water and rinse with cold water. Alternatively, buy an egg timer--there is a nifty one that is red plastic that turns purple when the eggs are done.
