Solution

Let x= ones digit and y=tens digit
According to the question ,
x+10y=6(x+y)+410y=6x+6y+4x4y=5x+4
And , from if 18 is substracted from the number , the digits are reversed ,
x+10y18=y+10x10y18=y+9x9y18=9xy2=x

Substitute x value into :
4y=5x+44y=5(y2)+44y=5y6y=6

Substitute y into :
y2=x62=x4=x
The number is 64.
