Math Riddle: How many legs are in the bus?
Rommel sent me this riddle,
There is a bus with 7 girls .
Each girl has 7 bags .
In each bag, there are 7 big cats
Each big cat has 7 little cats.
Each cat has 4 legs .
Question: How many legs are present in the bus?
Note: There’s no bus driver or conductor.
Tip: Visualize the riddle instead of putting it in a formula.
Do not continue if you wish to know the answer.
Since I don’t have a pen with me as I solved this problem, I used Fireworks to create my visual instead. Hehehe.
That is what a girl is holding, 392 cats.
Multiply that by 7 girls which will bring the total count to 2744 cats.
Multiply that by 4 legs per cat which will result to 10976 legs.
Add 14 legs from the 7 girls and the final answer would be 10990 legs.
Now the real riddle should be, how in the world can 56 cats fit in a bag. And how can a girl carry 392 cats?

Ay, ba’t 60 ang naisip ko. D ba ang bigat nyan? And why on earth would they bring 392 cats in a BAG? Hmnn.. kaya siguro ako bumagsak sa Math 53.
does one girl have 7 bags? or does it mean 1 bag to 1 girl?
Each girl has 7 bags, how she managed to carry those 7 bags with thousands of cats on it, i don’t know. hehehe.
