The riddle answer is that there are no legs on a bus, just wheels. The meth answer is complicated by the fact that it does not mention the "bus driver" who resumably has 2 good legs.
Math
The total number of (girl) legs is 10, and the total number of cat legs is (125 cats + 625 kittens) x 4 = 3000 kitty legs. So not counting the bus driver, there are 3010. Counting the bus driver, there are originally 3012 legs.
If 3 girls get off with their backpacks, the number falls to 1204 or 1206 with the driver.

5 girls = 10 legs
25 baskets
125 cats = 500 legs
625 kittens = 2500 legs
3010 legs in all
No. of legs per girl
1 girl = 2 legs
5 baskets
25 cats = 100 legs
125 kittens = 500 legs
602 legs per girl
With the proper data given, the formula would be: (let N=no. of legs left after the 3 girls got off the bus, A=all the legs in the bus, G=no. of legs per girl)
N = A - 3(G)
N = 3010 - 3(602)
N = 3010 - 1806
N = 1204 legs
Thus, 1204 legs are in the bus (1206 legs if the driver is included),
Work it out backwards... 1 cat has 2 kittens (which equals 3) and there are 2 cats with 2 kittens in each basket so there is 6 in 1 basket alone. There are 3 baskets so each girl will have a total of 18 cats. So therefore, between all 4 girls, there are 72 cats.\ :D

A bus doesn't have legs. A bus has wheels.
4 legs
Zero a bus does not have legs it has wheels.
If the question is asking how many kittens there are, my answer is 48 KITTENS.

buses have wheels
Oh, what a delightful puzzle you've shared with us! Let's see, even though two girls got off the bus, the cats and their kittens still remain. So, we have 3 girls, each with 3 baskets, and in each basket, there are 3 cats with 3 kittens - that's a lot of feline friends! As for the legs on the bus, don't forget about the driver and all the passengers who are still onboard, so there are many legs keeping that bus moving along on its journey.
4 legs
Zero a bus does not have legs it has wheels.
None. If I saw, that would be rude. Pervert.
4 girls= 8 legs 3(2 cats= 8 legs+2 kittens= 8 legs) 8+48 = 56 there are 56 legs..
All of them.
