   I heard this somewhere that the answer is 366, but i worked it out different.... k so..3ppl 3 baskets each...9 baskets.
   
   3 cats per basket = 27 cats.
   
   3 kittens per cat = 81 kittens.
   
   4 legs per kitten = 324 kitten legs
   
   4 legs per cat = 108 cat legs
   
   4 ppl total on the buss (a**s,Bre,Darcy and the driver)
   2 get off = 6 human legs left.
   
   324+108+6= 438 legs left on the bus.

   I'm very close, but maybe together we will sort it out.
   
   2 legs for each passenger
   3 passengers x 2 legs = 6
   
   
   In each basket was 12 cat's legs
   9 baskets x 12 legs = 108
   
   The kittens were all over the bus (not in baskets as they wouldn't fit :) )
   9 kittens for every 3 cats gives us 81 kittens.
   81 kittens x 4 legs each = 324
   
   Before bus stopped we have 324+108+6=438 legs on the bus.
   Bus is stopping and 2 people are leaving:
   438 - 4 = 434
   
   Each of them has only two hands so they are able to take only two baskets each witch three cats inside of each basket.
   12 legs in each basket.
   4 baskets x 12 legs = 48
   
   434-48 = 386
   
   Does it mean that one cat legged it when the door opened ???
   
   WTF

   Yep, the answer is 382.  No idea how they arrived at it though.  They had a similar version of the problem, where only Bre got off, and the answer was 404.  Its still wrecking my head!  If I figure it out, I will let y'all know...
