0 Guest Posted February 12, 2009 Report Share Posted February 12, 2009 (edited) I remember hearing this riddle recently... Seven girls are in a classroom. Each girl has seven backpacks. In each backpack there are seven cats. Each cat has seven kittens. How many legs are in the classroom? 7 x 2 + 7 x 7 x 4 + 7 x 7 x 7 x 4 = 1582 legs Of course this is simply the minimum number of legs possible because there could be other people, animals, desks, chairs etc. etc. in the classroom.1582 is wrong 10990 is correct.
