each hand five buckets and each bucket having 5 kittens means 5 * 5 = 25 so one hand 25 kittens then two hands 25 + 25 = 50 and one person who carrying these things and that person who saw this
totally 50 + 1 + 1 = 52.
so tha answer is 52 living things are in market

The answer is 52.
The mans each hand has 5 buckets. So totally there are 10 buckets.
Each bucket has 5 kittens.So there are totally 5 x 10 = 50 kittens.
Since there is one person he saw,totally there are 50+1+1=52 living things going on.

Q. One man going to the market.
In the opposite direction, he saw one person, carrying 5 buckets in each hand, carrying 5 kittens in each bucket. So after considering all these statements, how many living things going to the market?

Ans. From question it is clear that -
a man is carrying 5 buckets in one hand
and 5 in other , therefore
total = 5+5 that is 10 buckets & 5 kittens in each bucket
total kittens = 10 * 5 = 50
therefore 2 men & 50 kittens = 52 living creatures.

** but question asks how many going towards market
so the answer is 1 because that one man saw 51 living going away from market.
