    place both hourglass together, wait till 7 minute hourglass emptied (till now we have measured 7-minute and 4 minute remaining in 11-minute hourglass). Now reverse 7-minute glass and start it again, as soon as 11-minute glass emptied reverse 7-minute glass again. Wait till 7-minute becomes empty, Now it’s been 15 minute.
