    if you take 343 big cats and X 7 little cat and get 2401 cats.
    big cats and little = 2401 cats X 4 leg. 9604 legs
    7 girl - 14 leg.
    why add another 343 big cat?


    9604+14= 9618

    LOL...

    9604 legs just for LITTLE cats. You never accounted for the BIG cats.
    Big cat legs = 343*4 = 1372.
    your answer + 1372 = 10990 = correct answer.
