  1. LITTLE CAT'S LEGS

    7x7x7x7x4 = 9604 legs

    BIG CAT'S LEGS

    7x7x7x4 = 1372 legs

    GIRL'S LEGS

    7x2 = 14 legs

    TOTAL LEGS = 10990 legs


  2. lol, hey guess what, I receved that email a few months ago, and i think its the same email, coz there're a lot of ppl's name in the excel sheet, I got it right though, but I forgot the answer =). sorry. I drew diagrams to solve lol

  3. ok heres my explaination.

    there are 7 girls on a bus, but there is also a bus driver making this 8 people times 2 legs so therefore there are 16 legs. then we have 7 girls times seven bags so thats 49 bags. 49 bags times 7 big cats so thats 343 cats, times 4 legs is 1372 times 7 cats equals 9604 cat legs plus 16 so then you have 9620! Now add the 1372 and you get 10996 and that is a ton of legs!

  4. 980

  5. 10990 or only 14 because cats have paws or 16 w/ driver

  6. I THINK it's 2758, 2760 if your including the driver =]

  7. ummmmmm 25,088

  8. 1386

  9. Since there are 7 girls on the bus, 14 legs

    [unless there's a bus driver with them, then its 16 legs]

    (Who says the those things are all in the bus with them? ;D)

    I thought it was suppose to be a riddle!

    Its not meant to be this mathy :P

    Edit: Also. Ariel, who said I said FEET 0_o!?  [Lol]

    For a simple question, it brings ALOT of tension =0

  10. This riddle is ridiculous.  It's posted all the time, and no one accepts the correct answer.

    7 girls = 14 girl legs

    7 girls * 7 backpacks * 7 big cats * 4 legs/big cat = 1372 big cat legs

    7 girls * 7 backpacks * 7 big cats * 7 little cats * 4 legs/little cat = 9604 little cat legs

    That's a total of 14 + 1372 + 9604 = 10,990 legs

    There's no mention of a bus driver, a security guard, three-legged cats, one-legged girls or anything else.  It is what it is.  10,990 is THE answer.  If anyone tells you differently, they're full of it.

  11. 1582 legs or if you want to count the busdriver 1584 legs

  12. 1,976

    simple math your just mupulication.

    P.s. Allison2 she asked LEGS not FEET

  13. That's TOO MUCH to count. Haha

    I stopped after 14.

  14. 9,814 legs (9,816 with the driver)

  15. 266?

  16. 10,990

  17. just a guess...9,628 legs
