For all you smart ones out there...

I received this in an email and I can NOT for the life of me figure it out and am quitting for today because my brain is so tired that I can't think anymore...give it a try.

This is a 5th grade math problem. If you can open the spreadsheet, you'll see it's a very small list of people who have gotten the correct number. This is not a trick question. This is a real math problem so don't say that a bus has no legs.

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?


The number of legs is the password to unlock the Excel sh eet.

If you open it, add your name and send it on to see who else can unlock it.

(I can't figure out how to attach an excel sheet to this and don't even know if it is possible, but if you want me to send it to you via email, contact me at alemonds@gmail.com and I will send it to you.)

  1. I believe the answer is 10,990. Plug it in and see if it works.
