Puzzle 197
During a recent trip to Scotland, I filled my car's 10 gallon fuel tank to the very top.
I travelled at 60 mph up the motorway, and I knew that I averaged exactly 40 miles per gallon.
However, the moment I started, my fuel tank developed a leak, and four hours later I came to a complete stop as I'd run out of fuel!
How much fuel did I lose through the leak?

Puzzle 198
Below is a very special grid, around each shaded number are 8 white squares.
However, each white square should have a number from 1 to 7.
Once filled in, these 8 numbers will sum to the shaded number.
In addition, once completed correctly, no row nor column will contain a duplicate number within a white square.
For example, the top row may be 5 6 4 2 3 1 7, etc.
This is a very difficult puzzle, and many people resort to using a computer to help them, which is a challenge in itself.
