acsm posted this one a few weeks ago. here's the breakdown:

7 girls = 14 legs (2 legs per girl)
7 backpacks per girl = 49 backpacks
49 x 7 = 343 big cats at 7 per backpack
343 x 4 = 1372 legs on the big cats (4 legs per cat)

For every big cat there are 7 little cats. If there are 343 big cats then 343 x 7 = 2401 little cats
2401 x 4 = 9604 legs on the small cats (4 legs per cat)

14+1372+9604 = 10990
