5th grade math problem
This is a real math problem, so don't say that a bus has no legs.
There is no bus driver.
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?

32 legs for each big cat with the little cats
7 groups of these
7 separate bags with this amount
14 legs from the girls
wait a minute...
i forgot that each girl has 7 bags. so its 32 legs in a litter with mama * 7 mamas * 7 bags * 7 girls + 14 legs
