back to board1820 Ural Steaks Explained - Simply - Accepted Solution - Read it before you start Lets say there are 5 Steaks and capacity of pan is 4. Step 1: Cook first 4 one side for 1 minute. Step 2: Replace 1 one sided cooked steak with completely uncooked (remaining) one and cook for next 1 minute. Step 3: Now the chef has 3 completely cooked and 2 Half cooked. Cook the remaining 2 half cooked for another one minute. so 1 minute at each step, hence 3 minutes total minimal time. However, story doesn't end here :-). Lets take another example Now, Lets say there are 7 Steaks and capacity of pan is 4. Step 1: Cook first 4 one side for 1 minute. Step 2: Replace 3 one sided cooked steak with completely uncooked (remaining) three and cook for next 1 minute. Step 3: Now the chef has 1 completely cooked and 6 Half cooked. Cook 4 steaks from half cooked six for another one minute. Step 4: Last cook final 2 half cooked one for another one minute So total minimum time take is 4 minute. 1 minute at each step. Please keep in mind the scenarios where 0 steaks or steaks less then cooking capacity of pan.
