A couple of you have seen this already but that's ok. You can comment on how you felt about it and/or how long it took you to get it correct. :Green


It took me a couple of tries to do the math correctly. Hubby got the answer quickly and he was right the first time! :thumbdown :lol:

Remember, this is a real math problem; there are no tricks. And yes, please do assume that everything mentioned is really inside the bus.

If you already know the answer, please refrain from posting the answer until a few others have had a chance to embarrass themselves. :Bleh


There are 7 girls in a bus.

Each girl has 7 backpacks.

In each backpack are 7 BIG cats.

For every BIG cat there are 7 kittens.

The bus driver in not on the bus at this time. (Wonder why... :bonk: )


Question: How many legs are in the bus?


Have fun! :wave:

No doubt there's bound to be some fleas on a few of those kitty-cats. How many fleas should we guesstimate? :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

With all of that meee-owring going on it is no wonder the bus driver was not on the bus. :lol: :lol: :lol:

I found the bus-driver. He had to take one of those BIG CATS out. :Green

Hmmmmmm............I only made it through 4th grade math.........but I'll try............

1 (bus) x 7 girls = 7 girls
7 girls x 7 backpacks each = 49 backpacks total
49 backpacks x 7 BIG Cats each = 343 BIG Cats total
343 BIG Cats x 7 kittens each = 2401 Kittens + 343 Cats x 4 legs = 10976 Cat legs
10976 Cat legs + (7 Girls x 2 legs each = 14) = 10990 legs total
