Question: How many legs are there in the bus?
Scroll down for answer
Answer
10990 legs
My method for solving this was the following:
Girls = 7
BackpacksPerGirl = 7
BigCatsPerBackpack = 7
LittleCatsPerBigCat = 7
TotalBackpacks = Girls x BackpacksPerGirl or 49
BigCats = BigCatsPerBackpack x TotalBackpacks or 343
LittleCats = LittleCatsPerBigCat x BigCats or 2401
GirlsLegs = Girls x 2 legs or 14
plus
BigCatsLegs = BigCats x 4 legs or 1372
plus
LittleCatsLegs = LittleCats x 4 legs or 9604
equals
10990

Yes they didn't count the bus driver why would they be on a bus to go nowhere. Also,Sarah it said in the bus not on it.
