I received this math question at work this week. It is suppose to be a question for fifth graders. You will see it is challenging, but doable. Post your answers if you dare!
There are 7 girls on a bus.
Each of the 7 girls has 7 backpacks.
In each pack there are 7 big cats.
For every big cat there are 7 smaller cats.
How many legs are on the bus (there is not a driver on the bus).
Having a question of the week makes for good conversations starters. At the end of the week, discuss your answers and see how they came up with the answer. You are challenging each other and making your children think!
