It is true that hermit crabs have two pairs of walking legs. They are not considered to be true crabs because true crabs have five pairs of legs.
It varies depending on the species. Although 'centi' means 100, no species have been found with that many legs. All centipedes have one pair of legs for each body segment, and the largest is the Geophilomorpha with 29 segments or 58 legs.
As there are several types of caterpillars, there's also variety in the number of legs these insects can have. However, in average, most of them have 3 pairs of true legs besides of 5 pairs of so-called 'prolegs' in their abdomen.
Centipedes and millipedes are not classified as worms because they belong to a separate group of arthropods called myriapods. While they share some similarities with worms in terms of their long, segmented bodies, they have distinct characteristics such as multiple legs and exoskeletons that differentiate them from true worms.
No, millipedes do not have precisely 100 legs. They typically have between 30 to 400 legs depending on the species. The name "millipede" actually means "thousand feet" in Latin, but they do not have that many legs.
Some do, but most don't. The number of legs can range from 20 to more than 100.
All true crabs have 10 legs that are arranged in pairs.
The creature commonly known for having fourteen legs is the horseshoe crab. Despite its name, the horseshoe crab is not a true crab but rather a marine arthropod closely related to spiders and scorpions. It has five pairs of legs, totaling ten, and an additional pair of specialized appendages called pedipalps, which are used for feeding and mating. In total, this brings the count to fourteen legs.

Caterpillars do not have fake legs; instead, they have true legs and prolegs. They possess three pairs of true legs, which are similar to those of adult insects, and several prolegs on their abdomen, which help them grip surfaces as they move. The prolegs are not considered true legs but serve a similar function in aiding locomotion.
Not true-- Insects have only six legs.
Crabs are (usually) marine crustaceans. They have ten legs (counting specialized ones, e.g., claws or flattened pair of hind ones for swimming). Their body is generally broad and flattened; their eyes on short stalks, with the abdomen small and folded under the thorax. Commonly they have a hardened shell. The term crab is also used to describe other creatures with superficial similarities to true crabs, e.g., crustaceans like the hermit crab or horseshoe crab. There is also a parasite called a crab louse; body lice are informally referred to as crabs.

Centipedes, which are members of the class Chilopoda, always have an uneven number of pairs of walking legs, ranging from 15 to more than 171. The true centipedes (order Scolopendromorpha) have either 21 or 23 pairs of legs. Common house centipedes (Scutigera coleoptrato) have 15 pairs of legs.I think they will most likely be asking the amount of legs for the common house ones so it would be 15 pairs of legs.:)
