Answer : 1. "55 kms"
Explanation :
Answer: A) 55 kms Explanation: Let x and y be the respective km's travelled by man via taxi and by his own car.Given x + y = 90 => x = 90 - yBut according to the question,7x + 6y = 5957(90-y) + 6y = 595=> 630 - 7y + 6y = 595=> y = 630 - 595 = 35=> x = 90 - 35 = 55Therefore, the distance travelled by taxi is 55 kms.

Answer : 2. "k=7 & l=2"
Explanation :
Answer: B) k=7 & l=2 Explanation: If a number to be divisile by 88, it should be divisible by both "8" and "11" Check for '8' :For a number to be divisible by "8", the last 3-digit should be divisible by "8"Here 72x23y --> last 3-digit is '23y'So y=2 [ (i.e) 232 is absolutely divisible by "8"] Chech for '11' :For a number to be divisible by "11" , sum of odd digits - sum of even digits should be divisible by "11"(7 + x + 3) - (2 + 2 + y)(7 + x + 3) - (2 + 2 + 2)(10 + x) - 6 should be divisible by "11"for x = 7=> 17 - 6 = 11 [ which is absolutely divisible by "11"] So x = 7 , y= 2.
