7 girl = 14 legs
7 packs per girl
1 girl is carrying 7 packs X 4 legs per pack = 28
28 x 7 = 196
196 + 196 + 14 = 406

what about the bus driver? Cats have 2 legs and 2 arms?

49 backpacks w/ 7 cats

of 16 because the cats are in backpacks and the only people on the bus are 7 girls and 1 driver.

Unless this is like one of those "if a rooster layed an egg on a roof which side would it roll" and i just don't get it then the answer is 10,990...but i'm sick today and kinda out of it so it may be a trick question and it's gone over my head :dunno:


7 x 2 = 14

7 x 7 x 7 x 4 = 1372

7 x 7 x 7 x 7 x 4 = 9604

14 + 1372 + 9604 = 10,990

Or im just making everything more confusing.

To open the spreadsheet I have to enter the answer, So I tried all those, none are right

Only 2 because the girls are "on" the bus (double decker - British??) and the driver is "in" the bus. Unless there is no driver (never implied the bus was moving, or that the girls were on a trip) so there are no legs "in" the bus.

if you want to think of it like that then another way of looking at it is ok there are 7 girls on the bus, but how many boys are on the bus also?

And thats what makes it completely gay. (if true). It probably originated as an simple SAT question or something, and some retard answered with a completely obscure answer, and then justified it in a completely illogical way. From there it turned into a joke, and is used to tease those with basic (logical) math skills.

i havent read thru the answers so i dont know if im reposting someones answer but waht i got was.. 1582

we assume each girl has 2 legs and each cat has 4 legs.
7 girls = 14 legs
7 backpacks = no legs.
7 big cats in each backpack so... thats 49 cats so thas 196 legs.
for each big cat there are 7 little ones. so 49 * 7 = 343 cats which is 1372 legs
now 14 + 196 + 1372 = 1582 legs


BUT u said there are 7 girls on the bus right... which is probably on top of the bus... so there would be 0 legs IN the bus cuz everyone is on top... if you meant to say 7 girls in the bus the answer is 1582.

14 human legs

14 + 49 x 56 x 4 = 10990

if there is a driver add 2

7 girls x 7 backpacks= 49 backpacks /(x2)= 14 girl legs

49 backpacks x 7 big cats= 343 big cats /(x4)= 1372 big cat legs

343 big cats x 7 little cats= 1372 little cats /(x4)= 5488 little cat legs

14 girl legs + 1372 big cat legs + 5488 little cat legs= 6874 legs (maybe + 2 more for the driver)

we assume each girl has 2 legs and each cat has 4 legs.
7 girls = 14 legs
7 backpacks = no legs.
7 big cats in each backpack so... thats 49 cats so thas 196 legs.
for each big cat there are 7 little ones. so 49 * 7 = 343 cats which is 1372 legs
now 14 + 196 + 1372 = 1582 legs


BUT u said there are 7 girls on the bus right... which is probably on top of the bus... so there would be 0 legs IN the bus cuz everyone is on top... if you meant to say 7 girls in the bus the answer is 1582.
