so how does 238 sound? Sure hope that is right...
 

nope sorry keep trying :):)
 

Math tells me there are 70 legs, but common sense says there is a trick to the question.

 

sorry try again the girls have 7 bags each lol
*passes you a calculator* lol
 

Oh, in that case, I get:

7 girls with 7 bags each...7*7=48 bags
48 bags with 7 big cats each...48*7=336 big cats
336 big cats with 7 small cats each...336*7=2352 small cats

7 girls with 2 legs each...7*2=14
336 big cats with 4 legs each...336*4=1344
2352 small cats with 4 legs each...2352*4=9408

14+1344+9408=10,766 legs altogether

OMG that's a lot of math! Am I correct now? Or is my common sense still right about it being something else entirely?
 

no not yet getting close though lol
 

Ok, I just gotta know the answer.
Please tell me?
 

Girl 1
has
7 back packs
figure out how many in each backpack then by each girl then total them all


1st Backpack has
7 big cats

1 2 3 4 5 6 7
___________
Each big cat has 7 kittens

So make that 1 big cat + 7 kittens = 8

7 cats x's 7 kittens in each bag. (7 bags total)
_______________________________________

Cat 1 + 7 kittens.) * + + + + + + + [8]

Cat 2 + 7 kittens.) * + + + + + + + [8]

Cat 3 + 7 kittens.) * + + + + + + + [8]

Cat 4 + 7 kittens.) * + + + + + + + [8]

Cat 5 + 7 kittens.) * + + + + + + + [8]

Cat 6 + 7 kittens.) * + + + + + + + [8]

Cat 7 + 7 kittens.) * + + + + + + + [8]

Total = = [7 X 8 = 56]

__________________________________________________________

56 cats per bag X 7 bags= 392

392 = number of Cats with EACH Girl

392 X 7 = 2744

[392 CATS PER GIRL]

[ 7 GIRLS]

{392 CATS X 7 GIRLS = 2744}

2744 x 4 = 10976

10976 + 14 = 10990

{2744 total number of cats in bus X 4 legs per cat = 10976 total cat legs}

+ 7 girls 2 legs each = 14

Now take

10976 + 14 = Grand Total of + 10990

10976 = cat legs

14 = girl legs
