Jane.mary.alice.kate and sue are travelling on a tourist bus bus.each of them have 5 baskets there are 5 cats in every basket. Every cat has 5 kittens. When the bus stopped alice and kate got off
How many legs are there on the bus?
bimjob, you and I may have made a mistake I say that because it says "each of them have 5 baskets there are 5 cats in EVERY basket. every cat has 5 kittens." so that would be 5 cats and 5 kittens in each basket each with 4 legs - so thats 100 legs each girl has 5 baskets -so thats 502 legs (I added the 2 legs from the girl) so if 2 get off with their baskets then 3 girls are left - so that leaves 1508 legs on the bus (2 more for the bus driver)
however if read it exactly as it is, it doesn't necessarily that there is a bus driver or that the kittens are on the bus so then the answer could be 306 (unless I did the math wrong, which I might have)
Starskybear (face palm) wow, did I NOT read that. :o
ahem, I'll try again Each basket has 5 Cats (adult variety) and each Cat has her own 5 cute kittens, so each of the feline families has 6 members (6x4=24 feet) each basket has 5 feline families (5x24=120 feet) each girl has 5 baskets (5x120=600 feet) plus her own two (600+2=602 feet)
If two girls get off with their baskets and related feline fuzzballs, that leaves three girls with (3x602=1806 feet) plus the bus driver's two (1806+2=1808 feet)
Do you realize how heavy those baskets had to be - at least 45# apiece. Those were some seriously strong girls!!
Assuming the only passengers were the girls et.al. If Alice and Kate took all their baskets with them 368 legs
Each basket has 6 felines - 1 mama and 5 kits - that's 24 legs Each girl has 5 baskets - that's 24 x 5 = 120 legs So each girl represents 122 legs (don't forget the girl's legs!)
So if two get off (the bus) with their baskets, that leaves 3 girls, OR 3 x 122 = 366 legs!!
The two additional legs in my answer ... the bus driver.
The answer is 2826 (I watched the show until it ended because it was driving me mad) … . I have tried lots of different permutations to come up with THEIR answer to no avail… There is word play in the Question has to be it doesn’t make mathematical sense
6 I think since two people got off and there are still 3 people on the bus but with the driver there is two more legs so I think the answer is 8 legs
um,, it depends on how many tourists are on the bus?
206??? is that rite? haha
is the answer 1255 legs?
