There is one bus with seven girls in it. Each girl has 7 backpacks and
each backpack has seven big cats. Each big cat has seven little cats.
How many legs are there all together?
PLEASE HELP ASAP
Get out your calculators, gang!
This little student is stuck!
Btw, is there a busdriver on the bus too?
I thought this was a pron thread....
I DONT THINK THERE IS A BUS DRIVER TRY IT WITH AND WITHOUT PLEASE ITS REALLY DOING MY HEAD IN PLEASE PLEASE HELP
Break the problem into smaller parts so it doesn't seem so overwhelming.
Look at one backpack first. Each big cat has 7 little ones. There are seven big cats, so in total you have seven "families" of 8 cats each (1 big + 7 little = 8) in every backpack. So, each backpack contains 7 * 8 cats.
There are seven backpacks per girl; if each backpack has 7 * 8 cats, then the total number of cats per girl is 7 * (7 * 8).
There are seven girls, so the total number of cats in the bus is . . .
See if you can finish it from here. Don't forget to multiply the total number of cats (once you find it) by 4 to get the number of legs, and then remember to add in the girls' legs too.
is this a trick question? Are these Polish cats?
L-A-Z-Y . . . i already refused once to help him . . . i asked how many other passengers there were on the bus . . .

7 girls = 14 legs.(Stop giggling at the back).
49 Bps = 343 BCs =1372 legs
343 BCs= 2401 LCs =9604legs
Total of 10990 legs.
As I was going to St. Ives,
I met a man with seven wives,
And every wife had seven bags,
And every bag had seven cats,
And every cat had seven kits.
How many were going to St. Ives?
