Guest Posted February 5, 2008 Posted February 5, 2008 Read question very carefully Crack this if u want to add your name to the list of geniuses. My name is now on the list, can you put yours with it. There's a bus with 7 girls. Each girl carries 7 bags. Each bag carries 7 big cats. Each big cat carries 7 smaller cats(All the cats have 4 legs). Question: how many legs are on the bus? - don't include the bus driver! This is not a trick question i.e. the bus only has wheels. You need to work out how many legs there actually are. The answer is the password to open the attached file. Once you are in, you can put your name on the list and forward it on.

Andreamay Posted February 5, 2008 Posted February 5, 2008 wont let me open cos I havent excel on this computer but I think it is 434? Quote
Rea Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 I cant open it either. I got to 1592 legs! Just had a recap and got 11290!! Quote
Guest Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 This was fun!! I was one of the weird kids that loved maths at school. Thanx just added my name to the list!! aisha xoxo Quote
Guest Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 That was a good way to wake the brain up, name duly added. Thanks Sal Quote
Marion Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 I have excel but it says it's not the right version Quote
Steve Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 You can download a free 'compatibility pack' from M$ that enables you to open Excel 2007 files. Find it here Quote
Steve Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 By the way - it's easier to google the solution than count! Quote
Guest Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 That doesn't test your brain though steve, does it. I wouldn't like to think that you are cheating!!!!! Quote
Rea Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 No legs are on the bus. Theres a bus with 7 girls, it doesnt say they are on the bus. I hate, hate, hate this sort of thing. Tell me the answer, if you dont want to spoil it for everyone else, please pm me. PLEASE! Quote
Rea Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Forget it. I cheated, I mean checked on google and yahoo and somewhere else. I know the answer, but it seems I always did Quote
Lorna Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Now worked it out thanks... If we add our names we need to re uplaod the zip file. L Quote
belle06 Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 every time I try to open the file it asks for a password any suggestions? Quote
Guest Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 sorry .........I confess I have just cheated and googled the answer. Maths was never my strong point and this would have been bugging me all night Quote
Annie-pops Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 Woo - hoo! I worked out the answer without too much trouble. However , I had major trouble trying to add my name/ save the list!! Husband had to come and help and now looks cross as footy is on!! Obviously my maths and problem solving talents greatly outweigh my IT talents (extreme lack of!) Quote
belle06 Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 thanks I now feel slightly daft (LOL, Blonde moment) Quote
Guest Posted February 6, 2008 Posted February 6, 2008 After several attempts, just added my name. Quote
