Question

cooking instructions for a turkey say it should cook for 20 minutes per 500g, plus 15 minutes extra at the end. how long should a 4kg turkey take to cook?

Answer 1

280 minutes or 4.66 hours

Explanation:

we know,

1 kg =1000 g

4 kg =(4 x 1000) g =4000 g

now,

a turkey should cook for 20 minutes per 500g.plus 15 minutes extra at the end.

so,

500g turkey should cook for total =(20+15) minutes

=35 minutes

so,1g turkey should cook for total = (35/500) minutes

so, 4000g turkey should cook for total = (35/500 x 4000) minutes

=280 minutes

=(280/60) hours

=4.66 hours
