Each lady has 2 feet.
Each bag has 0 feet.
Each cat has 4 feet.
Each kitten has 4 feet.
There are 7 bags for every lady. There are seven ladies, so 7*7 = 49 bags. There are 7 Cats for every bag, so 49 * 7 = 343. There are 343 cats. Each cat has 7 kittens, so 343 * 7 = 2,401. There are 2,401 kittens.
Now we need to find out how many feet all of the ladies, bags, cats, and kittens have for the total.
2 feet for each lady, so 2 * 7 = 14 feet.
0 feet for each bag, so 0 * 49 = 0 feet.
4 feet for each cat, so 4 * 343 = 1,372 feet.
4 feet for each kitten, so 4 * 2,401 = 9,604 feet.
Now that we know how many feet are in each group, we find the total by adding them together.

+ 9,604
10,976
There are 10,976 feet on the bus.
