Answer

"puede" ----> "poder": Having the ability or faculty that can do something.
"sabe"-----> "saber": Having knowledge of something// *Having a set of knowledge acquired through study or experience on any subject, science or art.--->*this is applicable only to persons

examples:
puede------> Mi perro puede correr 1.000 kilómetros (My dog ​​can run 1.000 kilometers)
                 Yo puedo enseñarte español (I can teach you spanish)
sabe ---->Mi hermano sabe sumar y restar (my brother know how to add and subtract)

I hope to be helpful.
