Thief was dressed to play football,
In helmet and cleats,

And he ran to my math book,
And ripped out a few sheets…
He grabbed up a 7,
Before I could react,
And he swallowed it down,
His ‘digestable’ tract!

If the thief ripped out 7 sheets of my math book,
and each sheet had 7 numbers written on it,
how many numbers was he holding in total?
