i have tried several things, and i cant solve it..help

Answer 1

7*2=14 (girls legs)

7*7*7=343 cats

343*7=2401 kittens

343+2401=2744 cats all together

2744*4=10976 (cats legs)

10976+14=10990

There are a total of 10990 legs.

But if there is a bus driver there are 10992.

Answer 2

I got the answer and I'm only 13. Ok first you know that your gonna have to find the total # of legs, so dont forget to count the girls legs. So first times 7 girls X 2. Thats 14. write 14 down in an addition line on a peice of paper. Then do 7X7=49 and then do 49X7=343. Then do 343X4=1372 because 343 is how many cats there are and if they each have four legs it's 343X4. Then add 1372 to your addition line. After that multiply 343(because that was the answer to 49X7) X7=2401, and that is how many kittens in total. Then take 2401X4=9604. Then add 9604 to your number line. Then add up your number line that should look like this

14
1372
+ 9604
---------------------
10990
and the problems solution is 10990.
And if I'm wrong plz tell me!

Answer 3

There is a bus with 7 Girls --->14 legs
-Each girl carries 7 bags
-Inside each bag there is 7 cats
-Every cat has 7 kittens
-All cats have 4 legs each



total legs = {14 (from the 7 girls) + 7(56)(4)}
= 1582 legs

Answer 4

Well 7 girls * 7 bags/girl * 7 cats/bag = 343 cats.
Each cat has 4 legs. 343 * 4 = 1372
then each cat has 7 kittens which has 4 legs: 343 * 7 * 4 = 9604
plus girls have 2 legs each: 7 * 2 = 14
add those all up. 10990
if they don't count the girls then... 10976

Answer 5

7 girls *2 legs= 14

7 bags * 7 girls * 7 cats = 343 cats* 4 legs = 1372

343 cats * 7 kittens each * 4 legs each= 9604

add them all up and get 10,990

Must be a huge bus

Answer 6

7 girls = 7*2 = 14 legs
49*7 cats = 49*7*4 = 1372 legs
49*7*7kittens = 49*7*7*4 = 9604 legs
one bus driver = 2 legs
total = 10,992 legs

Answer 7

7 times 7 time 7 time 7 times 4

Answer 8

7 times 7 = 49. There are 49 bags. 49 times 7 = 343. There are 343 cats. 343 times 7 = 2401. There are 2401 kittens. 2401 + 343 = 2744. There are 2744 cats and kittens combined. 2744 times 4 equals 10976.

There are 10,976 legs total

Answer 9

7 times 7 = 49. There are 49 bags. 49 times 7 = 343. There are 343 cats. 343 times 7 = 2401. There are 2401 kittens. 2401 + 343 = 2744. There are 2744 cats and kittens combined. 2744 times 4 equals 10976.

There are 10,976 legs total.

Answer 10

the main to this question is to have one variable interior the tip. So ..... One is 7 better than the different The made of the two are 60 Product refers back to the tip effect of multiplication. So write this with one varible (x) and (x-7) set up an equation (x)(x-7)=60 x^2-7x=60 This demands qudratic awareness, yet you get an answer of 12 So your numbers are 12 and 5
