There are 10992 legs inside the bus.
7 CAs * 7 Bags *7 Big Cats = 343*4 = 1372 Legs
343*7= 2401 Small Cats*4= 9604 Legs
CA 7*2= 14 Legs

Confirmed answer is 10990 legs.
§ Let's say the whole situation simply :
- There are 7 ca's
- Each ca has 7 backpack
- Each backpack has 7 big cats
- Each big cat has 7 little small cats.
§ Question: How many legs are there in the bus?
§ Let's focus on each part of the question systematically, write down on a piece of paper if you have to, following my steps of chains.
1. Focus on the first girl first:
A B C D E F G
Girl A has 7 backpacks
2. Now focus on first backpack A1 :
A1 A2 A3 A4 A5 A6 A7
Backpack A1 has 7 big cats
3. Now focus on first big cat :
1 2 3 4 5 6 7
Ø Each big cats have 7 small cats (that's the end of the focus)
Systematically, 7 small cats has 28 legs (7 * 4) combined with the big cat that owns this 7 small cats.
Let's call this the "cat chain", so cat chain 1 has 32 legs altogether.
Ø So since there are 7 big cats
7 * 32 = 224 legs
Ø Therefore each backpack has 224 legs
Ø Finally, each ca has 7 * 224 = 1568 legs.
Lastly, since there are 7 ca's, A to G, there are 7 * 1568 legs (per ca) = 10976 legs.
Now, since each ca also has 2 legs each;
SO, (7 * 2) + 10976 = 10990 legs altogether
