Solve this Puzzle
Drill this out and see if you are a mathematician!
Scenario:
There is a bus with 7 girls inside,
Each girl has 7 bags,
Inside each bag, there are 7 Big cats,
Each Big cat has 7 small cats,
All cats have 4 Legs each!
Question: How many Legs are there inside the bus?
The total number of Legs would be the password for this file: (See attached file: Book121.xls)
If you can't open the file, the answer you obtained is wrong.

Good luck! I'm sure you can crack this!
PLEASE DON'T POST THE ANSWER - YOU WILL SPOIL IT FOR THE OTHERS - JUST SAY "I'VE GOT IT!" :)
ooooooooooopppppa, i checked the first page and the rest in second page missed, anyway i m wrong....ha ha
1111222111
techdoctor am i correct?
we have to count the Bus Driver's Leg too.....
answer + 2
i also could open with 10990. I i did open. but... ok..drop it.. forget about it.. it's not worth it to explain one hundred times some shity matter...23 minuts till iftar! HUNGRY!
a man - they mess it up
then ok.. then 10990 is right...and i got this answer in 1,5 minutes after i've read the post (1 minute out of these 1,5 took my boyfriend asking me something at that time..)..but when i got the answer, i said: 2 driver's legs should be added as well.. but since he is away.. then let it be!
i could open the file with the answer 10990

... had stopped the bus, and left the bus to have a pee at the time, darn it
T-Cofee,and you said: 14... but AGAIN!! even 10990 in wrong! where are the driver's 2 legs?? the answer should be 10992!!!
at last!!
Total 10990 legs
7 Girls = 14 Legs
343 Big Cats = 1372 Legs
2401 small cats = 9604 Legs
Total - 10990
If you can't change your fate, change your attitude.
are you serious? i thought you are kidding...
1. where it says that the driver outside of bus?
2.did you try to enter the password that you have got? does "14" open the document? I am telling you that i got the answer and I opened the document. But I am also telling you that even this "right" answer which I've got is wrong! coz... (see above..)
The busy driver is outside trying to load the cats in the luggage compartment
its asking how many legs inside the bus
"There is a bus with 7 girls inside"
the rest r all outside
If you can't change your fate, change your attitude.
but THEY give the different "right" answer, it's not 14. And I got this "right" answer...And that's where i am saying: the "right" answer is wrong, coz they forgot to add the bus driver's legs!!!
the right answer is 14 ... bus driver n cats in the bags are not inside the bus
The busy driver is outside trying to load the cats in the luggage compartment
If you can't change your fate, change your attitude.
but the "right" answer is WRONG! they forgot to add a driver's legs in this sum.
pt1985, somebody gave the answer on line already. But again, it's wrong, becuase it doesn't count the bus driver's legs.
can someone private message me the solution to the cat puzzle and explain it to me!
cheers
welcome back

If you can't change your fate, change your attitude.
Starting with the second sequence, each sequence is simply a detail description of the previous one. So, for example, the second sequence describes the first: one one, that is, 1, 1. The third sequence describes the the second: two {ones;} or 2, 1. The fourth describes the third: one two, one one: or 1, 2, 1, 1. This sequence in turn is described as follows: one one, one two, two ones (111221). The sequence that follows is therefore 312211 since it describes the exact composition of the preceding sequence.

I went to sleep just before you posted the second solution. Good try.
You are right. Don't tell me you just read it off the Internet. Please explain the solution for the benefit of others.
oh now,you are on different "issues"?...lemme see..guess now i have to read the previous post..

I have scribbled on two A4s and calculator is on. Still trying.
This man was sitting quietly reading his paper one morning, peacefully
enjoying himself, when his wife sneaks up behind him and wacks him on the back of his head with a huge frying pan.
Man: "What was that for?"
Wife: "What was that piece of paper in your pants pocket with the name Marylou written on it?" Man: "Oh honey, remember two weeks ago when I went to the horse races? Marylou was the name of one of the horses I bet on."
The wife looked all satisfied and goes off to work around the house.
Three days later he is once again sitting in his chair reading and she repeats the frying pan swatting.
Man: "What the hell was that for this time?" Wife: "Your horse called."
