Or.... if the girls ARE on the bus, then:-

7 girls x 2 legs = 14
+ 7 girls x 7 bags x 7 cats = 343 cats x 4 legs = 1372
+ 343 cats x 7 kittens x 4 legs = 9604

= 10,990

I hope they have some litter trays :shock:

7x7=49.....number of bags

49x7=343.......number of cats

343x7=2401.....number of kittens

2401+343=2744........cats and kittens

2744x4=10976.........legs of cats/kittens

10976+14=10990......legs of all (cats/kittens & girls)

10,990 is the correct answer. :)
