A turkey cost $1.05 per pound. There are going to be 15 people at the Thanksgiving dinner. Plan for each person to eat two, 3/8 pound servings for turkey. It takes 12 minutes per pound to cook a turkey and dinner is at 3:00 pm. How many minutes will it take to cook the turkey?

It will take 135 minutes or 2 hours and 15 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

What we need here is to get the total

amount in pounds of turkey to be cooked

each person eats 3/8 pound servings

Total pound per person would be 3/8 * 2 = 3/4 pound servings

From what we have, there are 15 people at the dinner,

The total pounds to cook will be

15 * 3/4 = 45/4 pounds

Per pound of turkey, it takes 12 minutes

For 45/4 pounds, it will take

45/4 * 12 = 135 minutes

Let us convert this to hours

That will be 2 hours and 15 minutes
