Math Problem Statement
Arpita wanted to go on a holiday with her friends on the long weekend in her brand new car which had covered less than 200 km. The odometer reading when she returned back home after the weekend was exactly reverse of the reading at the time that she started from home. The total distance covered was divisible by 77. What is the farthest distance that the holiday destination could have been from Arpita's home, if she took the same route either way? (to the nearest integer kilometer)
