49 bags = 343 big cats
343 big cats = 2401 little cats

(big cats + little cats) x 4 = 10976 legs
Add the 14 legs from the girls

10990

The Pictou Ferryboat is full when it has ten cars on board. It is also full when it has six trucks on board. The ferryboat never carries cars and trucks at the same time.
The ferryboat made five trips across the river and was full on each trip. It carried a total of 42 cars and trucks across the river.

How many cars did the ferryboat carry altogether in the five trips?

theres another one

I got 10990 ... but that's not physically possible to fit that many animals in the fucking bus!

Such a dumb question

Why would the girl's have 7 back packs ? was 1 not adequate?

Why carry 7 cats and 49 little cats in each bag? fucking animal cruelty!
