Q:

An employee may claim Rs. 7.00 for each km when he travels by taxi and Rs. 6.00 for each km if he drives his own car. If in one week he claimed Rs. 595 for traveling 90 km. How many kms did he travel by taxi ?

A) 55 kms B) 35 kms
C) 25 kms D) 65 kms
 
Answer & 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 - y
But according to the question,
7x + 6y = 595
7(90-y) + 6y = 595
=> 630 - 7y + 6y = 595
=> y = 630 - 595 = 35
=> x = 90 - 35 = 55
Therefore, the distance travelled by taxi is 55 kms.
