You should be doing your own homework, but here goes anyway.
7 girls have 2 legs each. 7x2=14 girl legs
each girl has 7 bags of 7 cats. 7x7=49. Each girl is carrying 49 cats.
49 cats x 7bags=343 cats all together.
Each cat has 7 kittens. 343 cats x 7 kittens =2401kittens.
343 cats + 2401 kittens = 2744 felines in all.
Each feline has 4 legs. 2744 felines x 4 legs = 10976 feline legs
14 girl legs + 10976 feline legs = 10990 legs
Therfore there are 10990 legs on the bus. Assuming there is a driver and he/she has two legs, ther would be 10992 legs in the bus.
Your answere will be different depending on how you read the question. For instance, it says all cats have four legs. So assuming this means all the cats, and not the kittens, then you have to redo it all with out the kittens, that info would then have been thrown in just to confuse you. Also there is a bus with seven girls it doesn't say if the girls are currently in the bus, like the question say at the bottom, how many legs are in the bus.
Assumeing this is a legitimate math questions with no tricks or catches, I believe my answere above is correct, both with and with out the driver's two legs. I am in no way very good at math, but I am very good at logic and figuring things out. I did use a calculater for the math parts though. I am interested in seeing what other answeres you get.

7 girls x 2 = 14 legs
7 bags x 7 girls = 49 bags = 0 legs
49 bags x 7 cats = 343 cats x 4 legs = 1372 legs
7 cats x 7 kittens = 49 kittens x 4 legs = 196 legs
14+0+1372+196 = 1582 legs providing there is no add'l if the bus driver is not a girl, or even on the bus, in which case would be 1584.

10992 including the bus driver.... This is one girls set of bags=
7 bags with 7 cats = 49 cats
49 cats with 7 kittens each 7 x 49 = 343 kittens
343 kittens plus the cats, 343 + 49 = 392
392 x 4 (legs) = 1568
1568 legs for one girls 7 bags.
so... x by 7 for the other girls and u get 10976
7 girls = 14 legs
1 bus driver = 2 legs
add their legs onto the cats and kittes and u get 10992

There is 10990 legs in the bus.
Thats a hard riddle, you deserve a *STAR!* for that!
7 girls = 14 legs
the thing is it says EACH GIRL HAS 7 BAGS
and it says EACH OLDER CAT HAS 7 KITTENS
so
7 old cats + 49 kittens=56 animals in the bag altogether
56x4=224
224x7=1568
1568 is the number of animals legs that one girl has
1568x7=10990
So There Is 10990 legs on the bus.
Please can you answer this question....

Start with 1 sack, then add-on
there are 7 big cats & 7 little cats in it.
7 little cats x 4 legs/cat= 28 legs + 1 big cat= 32 legs
32 legs x 7 big cats= 224 legs
224 legs x 7 sacks= 1568 legs
1568 legs x 7 kids= 10976 legs
7 kids x 2 legs/kid= 14 kid legs
10976 cat legs + 14 kid legs= 10990 legs on the bus

mr fixer, u r KILLIN ME!! :-)
for each girl i figure:
girl = 2 legs
7 bags w/ 7 cats = 49 cats which = 196 cat legs
49 cats w/ 7 kittens each = 343 kittens which = 1372 kitten legs
2 + 196 + 1372 = 1570
now 1570 * 7 = 10990
BUT
is it a trick and the answer really is 0 becuz buses don't have legs??
OR
it only specified that the CATS had 4 legs so is it 49 cats * 4 legs = 196 legs?
HELP
HAHAHAHAHAHA
good luck

212
49 cats times 4 legs = 196 legs
7 girls times 2 leg = 14 legs
1 bus driver times 2 legs = 2 legs
total 212

7 girls x2 = 14 legs
49 bags so 49x7 =343 cats so 343 x 4 =1372 legs
343 x 7 = 2401 kittens so 2401 x 4 =9604 legs
total 14+1372+9604 = 10,990 legs
you have not specified the following
if there is bus driver then... 10992 legs
also not specified about girls and kittens legs (they have or not)

1582 legs
4X7X7=196 legs for kittens per girl
4X7= 28 legs for cats per girl
= 224 X 7 = 1568 legs for all cats and kittens
= 2 X 7 = 14 legs for all girls
1568+14 = 1582 legs total

uh, alot. Those are very strong girls. Are they all in the bus or are some of them on top? Or under? Is one of them driving or is that someone else? Alot of people are forgetting that each girl is carying seven bags, not just one. So, each bag contains 196 legs each girl carries 1372 the bus caries 9618 plus the driver.
Or none because they are with the bus not in it.
