Question

a number consists of two digits whose sum is 9.if 27 s subtracted for the number,its digits are reversed.find the number.

Answer 1

Let us assume, x and y are the two digits of the two-digit number

Therefore, the two-digit number = 10x + y and reversed number = 10y + x

Given:

x + y = 9 -------------1

also given:

10x + y - 27 = 10y + x
9x - 9y = 27
x - y = 3 --------------2

Adding equation 1 and equation 2

2x = 12
x = 6

Therefore, y = 9 - x = 9 - 6 = 3

The two-digit number = 10x + y = 10*6 + 3 = 63
