6 girls are travelling on the bus each of them have 2 baskets in each basket there are 4 cats each cat has 4 kittens two girls are getting off the bus how many legs are there on the bus?

For each girl: 4 kittens per cat, 4 cats per basket, 2 baskets, 2x4=8 8x4=32 32x4=128 8x3=32 1x2=2 128+32+2=162x4=648 legs.The above assumes two girls have left the bus. Alternately:Assumptions:> Assumes the girls are not yet off the bus as stated "6 girls are travelling on the bus... two girls are _getting off_ the bus" and as a result are still on the bus at the time of the leg count> Assumes that the kittens are with the cats in the basket and not at home> Assumes there is a driver and they have legs, but are not included as they are not referenced in the statement> Assumes no other passengers, animals, milliepedes or other creatures on the bus> Assumes no disembodied legs aboard> Assumes no tables with legs> Assumes legs on bus seats as information not provided> Assumes "standard" number of legs per animal / person> Assumes there is no ticket inspector> Assumes the baskets don't have legs> Assumes health and safety investigator/Animal Safety officer not on board to monitor 20 cats per basket. These are some big baskets.6 girls with 2 legs each= 6 * 2 legs= 12 legs6 girls have 2 baskets of 4 cats with 4 legs each= 6 * 2 * 4 * 4 legs= 192 legs6 girls have 2 baskets of 4 cats with 4 kittens with 4 legs= 6 * 2 * 4 * 4 * 4 legs= 768 legsTotal Legs= 12 + 192 + 768= 972 legs


How many legs do five dogs have?

Five dogs would have a total of 20 legs. Each dog has 4 legs, so when you multiply 4 legs by 5 dogs, you get a total of 20 legs.
