Question

THERE IS ONE BUS , INSIDE THE BUS THERE ARE 7 GIRLS, EACH GIRL HAS 7 BAGS ,INSIDE EACH BAG THERE ARE 7 CATS , EACH CAT HAS 7 SMALL CATS ,HOW MANY Legs are INSIDE THE BUS?

Answer 1

If this isn't a trick question, then there are 7 girls, 343 cats, and 2401 kittens, so (7x2) + (343 x 4) + (2401 x4) = 6174 legs on the bus, add two for the bus driver to be 6176.

Breaking it down:

7 girls.
Each girl (7) had 7 sacks. 7 x 7.
Each sack (7x7) had 7 cats (7), so (7 x 7 x 7) so 343.
Each cat has 7 kittens (343 x 7), so 2401.


This is actually a spin off from the original riddle, which goes

"On my way to St. Ives, I met a man with 7 wives. Each wive carried 7 sacks, each sack had 7 cats, each cat had 7 kits. Kits, cats, sacks, and wives, how many were going to St. Ives?"

Which the answer is 1, me. Met in this case means I was going one way and the man and wives were going the other way (away from St. Ives)

Answer 2

7 girls X 2 legs = 14 legs
7 cats X 49 bags = 343 cats
343 cats X 4 legs = 1372 legs
1 bus driver X 2 legs = 2 legs

14+1372+2=1388 legs are inside the bus.

You don't count the "7 small cats" that each cat has because they are not on the bus (otherwise how can you only have 7 cats in each bag and then add 49 more to each bag?). The 7 small cats must all be somewhere else since the question does not state that they are inside the bus like it does with the girls and the bags.

Another spin on the riddle could be that the bags are technically not INSIDE the bus since the bags would be in the cargo area and not the cab area, but I personally would still consider that to be inside the bus. In that case it would be 16 legs INSIDE THE BUS.

Answer 4

Answer 5

Total 10990 legs

7 Girls = 14 Legs
343 Big Cats = 1372 Legs
2401 small cats = 9604 Legs

Total - 10990

Answer 6

1-girl->7 cats->each cat contain 7 small cats. so total 8 including big cat. 7 bagsX 8 cats=56 catsx7bags=224x4legs=1568 legs for 1 bagXfor 7 bags=10976legs+14 ladies legs=10990 total legs in the buss.

Answer 7

Each bag has 56 cats & Each girl has 7bags
So 1 girl has 392 cats.

7 girls have 2744 cats.

Each cats 4 legs.

2744 *4= 10976 + 14 legs of 7 girls= 10990 legs

So the Answer is 10990 legs

Answer 8

K. . . no.of girls=(7)-imp.
no.of bags for each girl=7
no. of bags in total=7*7=49
no. of B.cats in each bag=7
total no. of big cats=7*49=(343)-imp.
no. of small cats per big cat=7*343=(2401)-imp.
total no. of legs the girls have=7*2=14
total no. of legs the big cats have=343*4=1372
total no. of legs the small cats have=2401*4=9604
total no. of legs=14+1372+9604=10990!
if you're a smartass then
the no. of legs the driver could have=2
the answer=10990+2=10992

Answer 9

Answer 10

Total no of cats with one girl=7*7(small cats)+7(big cats)*7(no of bags)=392
Total no of cats with seven girls= 392*7=2744
Total legs of cats=2744*4=10976
Total legs=10976+14(legs of girls)=10990
