I say nine minutes because the question asks solely for the preparation time of the egg itself.

Preparation time of the egg includes setting up the hourglasses as required beforehand.

16 minutes is incorrect :(

I try again: start the 7 and the 4 at the same time, When 4 is finished, turn around both, put egg in, when 7 is finished, turn over both, when 4 is finished turn over 7, when 7 is finished, take out egg. 13 minutes.

13 minutes is also incorrect.
