-There is a bus with 7 Girls

-Each girl carries 7 bags

-Inside each bag there is 7 cats

-Every cat has 7 kittens

-All cats have 4 legs each

Question: How many legs are in the bus?

I am probaly wrong, but here is my two cents,

7 girls x 2 legs = 14 girls legs

7 cats x 7 bags = ** cats

** cats x 4legs = *** cats legs

** cats x 7 kittens = *** kittens

*** x 4 legs = **** kitten legs

1582 legs providing they are all on the bus with no driver and an no person is missing a leg or legs

1584 with a driver

210 legs if they kittens are not on the bus, +2 if there is a driver..

i hope one of those 3 are right..haha, I use to be good at maths, feel a bit rusty now :thumbdown:

-There is a bus with 7 Girls = 14 legs

-Each girl carries 7 bags

-Inside each bag there is 7 cats = 49 bags x 7 cats = 343 cats x 4 legs = 1372 legs

-Every cat has 7 kittens = 343 cats x 7 kittens each = 2401 kittens = 9604 legs

-All cats have 4 legs each

Answer - 10990 (one pretty crowded bus)

I reckon you are all wrong :1prop:

My answer is Zero,

You didnt say that the girls or the cats were in the bus to start with. Mariner simply said

They could all be standing next to the bus for all we know :1prop::1prop::1prop:
