266?
7 girls with 2 legs apiece = 14 7 big cats with 4 legs apiece = 28 1 big cat has 7 little cats -- 7 cats at 4 legs apiece = 32 per cat, and there are 7 of them, so 224 legs 224 + 14 +28 = 266. |

7 girls x 2 legs = 14 legs
Each girl (7) has 7 bags and each bag has 7 big cats = 7x7x7 = 343 big cats x 4 legs = 1,372 big cat legs Each big cat (343) has 7 small cats = 2,401 small cats x 4 = 9,604 small cat legs 14 + 1,372 + 9,604 = 10,990
