Is this math problem hard?

- There are 12 brothers living in a mansion. Six brothers are sitting in a rectangular kind of table. Six other brothers stood around them. They all have ten huge backpacks. Each backpack has 8 large monkeys. For every large monkey, there are 3 small ones. How many legs are there in all?
**** Problem may look weird but my teacher, who says one of kids most weakest part of math is solving story problems, said that we should write our own problem. Is this good? I don't even know how to solve my own problem because I just wrote things down quickly. I'll try to solve it if this is a good problem.

just write down the facts they provide as algebraic expressions. Take a stab at it, and show how far you get.

This math problem involves counting the number of legs in the given scenario. To solve it, we need to consider the number of legs for each element in the story.

Let's break it down step by step:

1. There are 12 brothers living in a mansion.
- Since each brother has two legs, we multiply the number of brothers by 2: 12 brothers x 2 legs = 24 legs.

2. Six brothers are sitting at a rectangular table.
- We assume each brother is sitting on a chair, so within the rectangle, there are 6 chairs x 4 legs = 24 chair legs.

3. Six other brothers stood around them.
- Assuming these standing brothers are not sitting on any furniture, we have 6 brothers x 2 legs = 12 standing brother legs.

4. Each brother has ten huge backpacks.
- Since the number of backpacks doesn't affect the number of legs, we can ignore this information for leg count calculations.

5. Each backpack has 8 large monkeys.
- Since each monkey has 2 legs, the number of legs for all the large monkeys is 8 monkeys x 2 legs = 16 legs.

6. For every large monkey, there are 3 small ones.
- We need to consider the number of small monkeys based on the number of large monkeys. Considering 8 large monkeys, we have 8 large monkeys x 3 small monkeys = 24 small monkeys.
- Each small monkey has 2 legs, so the total number of legs for the small monkeys is 24 small monkeys x 2 legs = 48 legs.

Now, let's calculate the total number of legs in this scenario:

Total number of legs = 24 legs (brothers) + 24 legs (chair legs) + 12 legs (standing brothers) + 16 legs (large monkeys) + 48 legs (small monkeys) = 124 legs.

So, in this scenario, there are a total of 124 legs.
