Nice approach, please do review mine, as I have done it a different way :)
I like this math explanation, but the question doesn't say how many are evenly divisible by 7. I can divide all the 2 digit numbers by 7 and tell you the remainder if you like.
Nice explanation but I am confused or may be other people, I did not understand why you compared 100 since in question it is 7. ??
I may seem odd ............ :P

100 is the first 3 digit number, therefore all the numbers needed for the solution must be between 14 ( the first 2 digit multiple of 7) and 100 (the first 3 digit number)
Good solution
The very first 2 digit multiple of 7 is 1 4 and the 9 8 is the last. The only thing we have to do is to find the number of terms of this arithmetic progression.
a = 1 4 , d = 7
a n = a + ( n − 1 ) d
⇒ 9 8 = 1 4 + ( n − 1 ) 7
⇒ n = 1 3
Yes , this is nice too :)
Can you tell us why you are finding multiple of 7 .
This one seems nice. But here also we have to calculate the last number which is divisible by 7.

Ya, that's the only effort we make. Thanks!

Divide by 7 with highest divisible no. of 7 and then subtracted by 1
In the table of 7 the highest no by which the answer is in two digit excluding 1 because 7 is one digit So the answer is 13
As we know, 98 is the last two digits no divisible by 7 98/7 = 14 but in these 14 numbers we have also counted 7 which is of one digit i.e. we will substract this case from 14, 14 - 1 = 13
Why aren't we including negatives? This would count all two-digit numbers between -99 and 99, meaning the solution should be 26.

The total numbers divisible by 7 below 1 0 0 would be given by ⌊ 7 1 0 0 ⌋ = 1 4 . But one of them is 7 which is one-digit number. Thus the number of required two digit numbers = 1 4 − 1 = 1 3
