At work the other day someone got an email with a simple math problem. Nobody could solve it, nobody, but me that is. I thought it was pretty simple. I am no math genius, but it was my favorite subject after science in school. Am I weird that I find math fun? I actually wish I could do more math for fun. I know I forgot most of the math that I learned in school, which sucks. So, here is that problem that nobody could figure out:
There are 7 girls on a school bus. Each girl has 7 backpacks. In each backpack there are 7 big cats. Each big cat has 7 little cats.
How many legs are on the bus?
There is no trickery. It’s just a simple math problem. Is it really hard, or do I work with a bunch of dummies? Try it out and put your answers in the comments.
