"9-minute egg riddle"
You're a cook at a restaurant in a quaint town where clocks do not exist.
You have a 4-minute hourglass timer, a 7-minute hourglass timer, and a pot of boiling water.
A regular customer orders a 9-minute egg, and you know this person to be extremely picky -- disappointed if you overcook or undercook the egg, even by a few seconds!
Can you prepare the egg in exactly 9 minutes (using the hourglasses)?
