7 girls x 2 legs = 14 legs

7 girsl x 7 bags x 7 cats = 343 cats x 4 legs = 1372 legs (cats)

343 cats x 7 kittens = 2401 x 4 legs = 9604 (kittens)

Total Legs = 14 + 1372 +9604 = 10990 Legs

7 boys (2 legs each) = 14 legs..............(1)

7 boys x 7 bags = 49 bags

1 bag has 7 Big cats

then 49 bags have= 49x7=343 cats

now total legs of big cats are= 343x4=1372 legs............(2)

now ever big cat is having 7 small cats

so 343 big cats have total small cats= 343x7=2401 small cats.

so total legs for small cats= 2401x4=9604 legs.........(3)

so grad total Legs will be (1)+(2)+(3)=14+1372+9604=10990 legs

Answer =10990

7 boys (2 legs each) = 14 legs..............(1)

7 boys x 7 bags = 49 bags = 49 large cats

So 49 large cats have 49 x 4 legs = 196 legs ..........(2)

Each large cat has 7 small cats, so 49 large cats have 49 x 7 = 343 small cats

343 small cats have 343 x 4 legs = 1372 legs...........(3)

Adding 1 + 2 + 3 = 1582 legs........

10990 legs excluding the driver.

Each bag has 7 big cats with 28 legs (7*4 = 28) and 49 small cats with 196 legs (49*4 = 196). So each bag has 224 legs. Each boy has 7 bags, so each boy has 1568 legs (7*224 = 1568) plus 2 of his own, totalling 1570 legs. Since there are 7 boys, 10990 legs (1570*7 = 10990).
