Timothy is preparing a stuffed Tofurky while Robert is preparing drummettes. It takes two minutes to cook the drummettes in the

microwave or eighteen minutes in the oven. It takes three times longer to cook the Tofurky than to cook the drummettes in the oven. Robert decided to use the oven and was done cooking the drummettes at 5:12 p.m. If Timothy started to cook the Tofurky at the same time as Robert started to cook the drummettes, what time will Timothy take the Tofurky out of the oven? (explain your answer)
