7 girls = 14 legs. Hold that number for later. (7 girls) times (7 bags per girl) = 49 bags (49 bags) times (7 cats per bag) = 343 cats (343 cats) times (7 kittens per cat) = 2,401 kittens (343 cats) + (2,401 kittens) = 2,744 4-legged creatures (2,744 4-legged creatures) times (4 legs per creature) = 10,976 legs on the cats and kittens. Add 14 legs on the girls. Total = 10,990legs. (But I am still the only one headed for St. Ives.)
Each child has two legs (7 x 2 = 14 legs).Each child has 7 bags containing 7 big cats, so 7 x 7 = 49 big cats for each child.Each big cat has 7 kittens, so 49 x 7 = 343 kittens for each child's big cats.So, 49 x 7 big cats (343) in total. And 49 x 7 x 7 kittens (2401) in total.Total of big cats + kittens = 2744.Each cat or kitten has 4 legs. So, 2744 x 4= 10976 legs for cats, big and small. So, with the children: 14 + 10976 = 10990 total legs on the bus.
There are no legs on the bus, it has wheels.-------------------------------------------------------Quite correct but in the bus there were :-Bus driver = 2 legs7 Girls = 14 legs98 Cats = 292 legs= 308 legs in total.(PS I am not counting any legs belonging to the seats that the driver and girls were sitting on) ______________________________________ If you want to count it that way there 7 girls and each has 7 bags that is 49 bags in total, each bag contains 7 cats (each with 7 kittens) so there are 56 cats & kittens per bag. Making a total of 2744 cats and kittens (49 bags x 56 felines), each has 4 legs, giving a total of 10,976 feline legs. Then add the 14 legs from the girls, plus a possible bus driver (2 legs) and perhaps a conductor, with 2 more legs (as it appears to be a school bus) would give a total of 10,994 legs but the bus still has wheels.
The girls, the cats and the kittens have legs but there are no legs on the bus, it has wheels.
does each girl have seven cats or one cat each? there are 406 legs There are 10,990. 7 girls, 49 backbacks, 343 big cats 2401 small cats. girls, 14 legs 1,372 big cat legs, 9,604 kitten legs.
180 why do you care 108 is the actual answer
7 girls have 14 legs total.They each have four cats, so that's 28 cats with 112 legs total.The 28 cats each have 3 kittens, so that's 84 kittens with 336 legs total.462 legs total are on the bus.But then 3 girls with 6 legs get off the bus.Taking 12 cats with 48 legs off the bus.And taking 36 kittens with 144 legs off the bus.Or removing 198 legs from the bus total.Leaving 264 legs on the bus.
4 girls= 8 legs 3(2 cats= 8 legs+2 kittens= 8 legs) 8+48 = 56 there are 56 legs..
11188 legs
You said each girl holds 3 baskets in each hand, which means there are a total of 18 baskets. Multiply the number of baskets by 3 cats per basket and there are 54 cats with a total of 162 kittens. The total number of cats and kittens is 216 multiplied by 4 legs per animal and you have 864 legs. Then you must include the total number of girls' legs which is 6. Therefore you have 870 legs total. This is assuming there are no other passengers or a driver on the bus. Edit: This was a question on one of those dodgy TV shows. The answer given as correct was 250 legs. By my reckoning this is 250legs - 6 human legs = 244 cats legs, ie 61 cats. The only way I can see this being correct is if some of the 3 cats per basket are kittens from other cats!! Is there any equation whereby each cat would have 3 kittens with the total number being 61 cats??
None, buses have wheels.
