Get this forward yet? Yeah... it was entitled "Are You Smarter than a 5th Grader" since its 5th grade math like the tv show I guess.
And no I haven't gotten the answer yet cause I suck. May be a good time to try out the "spoiler" text if you actually do know the answer.
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?
This is a real math problem so don't say that a bus has no legs. |

7 Girls = 14 legs
7 x 7 = 49 Backpacks
49 x 7 = 343 Big cats = 1372 Legs
343x7 = 2401 Little cats = 9604 legs
Total = 10,990....or 10,992 with the bus driver.
