    Given:

    7 kg turkey

    cooking time: over 4kg;

    allow 20 minutes per kg plus 90 minutes

    leave to rest for 30 minutes before carving

    20 * 7 = 140 minutes + 90 minutes = 230 minutes cooking time

    230 minutes + 30 minutes to rest = 300 minutes all in all

    300 minutes : 60 minutes = 5 hours

    If he plans to carve the turkey at 17:15,

    17:15 - 5:00 = 12:15

    then he should cook the turkey at 12:15
