Are you smarter than a fifth grader?? Give it a try it's a fun one.
This is a 5th grade math problem.
This is not a trick question.
This is a real math problem so don't say thata bus has no legs.
And don't include a bus driver! Read carefully.
There are 7 girls in a bus.
Each girl has 7 backpacks.
In each backpack, there are 7 big cats.
For every big cat there are 7 little cats.
Question: How many legs are there in the bus?

10990 or 14, depending on what is included.
I am terrible at things like this.

Cats have paws at the ends of their legs. And 10,990 is correct. |

It's 10,990 legs total.
(I've had cats for years and years, so I know what's a paw and what's a leg.)
