- Inside each bag, there are 7 big cats.
- Each big cat has 7 small cats.
- All cats have 4 legs each!

Question: How many legs are there inside the bus?

The total number of legs would be the password to open the attached EXCEL File.

The cats have 9604 among them. But what about the girls? They have 14 legs too. So the answer should be 9618. Please confirm. Jeroo

Hi Jeero,

You have done alright, but you've forgotten that each bag has 7 cats, i.e., 49*7 = 343, and each cat has 4 legs, i.e., 1372. As per your calculation (9618 + 1372) = 10990.

There are 7 girls with 7 bags, totaling 49 bags.
Each bag has 8 cats. Each cat has 4 legs, so the total legs in each bag is 32.
One bag has 7 * 32 = 224 legs.
With a total of 7 bags for each girl, there are 224 * 7 = 1568 legs.
Considering all seven girls, 1568 * 7 = 10976 legs.
There are also 7 * 2 = 14 additional legs.
Therefore, in a bus, there are 10976 + 14 = 10990 legs.
