1. Focus on the first girl first:
A B C D E F G
Girl A has 7 backpacks

 

 

 

2. Now focus on first backpack A1 :
A1 A2 A3 A4 A5 A6 A7
Backpack A1 has 7 big cats

 

 


3. Now focus on first big cat :
1 2 3 4 5 6 7

 

Each big cats have 7 small cats (that's the end of the focus)
Systematically, 7 small cats has 28 legs (7 * 4) combined with the big cat that owns this 7 small cats.

Let's call this the "cat chain", so cat chain 1 has 32 legs altogether. 
So since there are 7 big cats
7 * 32 = 224 legs

  •  Therefore each backpack has 224 legs
  •  Finally, each girl has 7 * 224 = 1568 legs.

 

 

 

Lastly, since there are 7 girls, A to G, there are 7 * 1568 legs (per girl) = 10976 legs.

Now, since each girl also has 2 legs each;
 

 

SO, (7 * 2) + 10976 = 10990 legs altogether

10990 legs....

Actually, the answer is zero. There are no legs on a bus; a bus has wheels.

 

 

But as the question was for legs, so calculated it

First take only one girl. She has 7 bags therefore she has 7*7= 49 big cats. Now these 49 big cats have 49*7=343 small cats. Total Cats with first girl = 49+343=392. Total no. of legs of cats= 392*4=1568. So, total legs of cats of all the seven girls= 1568*7=10976 Add 14 legs of seven girls and thus total legs will be 10990.

there are only 14 legs on the bus.. that is 7 * 2. the rest of legs have to be ignored as they are in the bag.. simple

Vow !!!!!!! So, smart... 

Girls have 2 legs So 7 girls have 14 legs

There are 343 (7*7*7) big cats. So 343 big cats have 343*4=1372 legs

There are 343*7=2401 small cats. So 2401 small cats have 2401*4=9604 legs

Total 14+1372+9604=10990 legs
