x
=
ones digit and
y
=
tens digit
According to the question
,
∴
x
+
10
y
=
6
(
x
+
y
)
+
4
⇒
10
y
=
6
x
+
6
y
+
4
−
x
⇒
4
y
=
5
x
+
4
And
,
from if
18
is substracted from the number
,
the digits are reversed
,
∴
x
+
10
y
−
18
=
y
+
10
x
⇒
10
y
−
18
=
y
+
9
x
⇒
9
y
−
18
=
9
x
⇒
y
−
2
=
x
Substitute
x
value into
:
4
y
=
5
x
+
4
4
y
=
5
(
y
−
2
)
+
4
4
y
=
5
y
−

y
=

Substitute
y
into
:
∴
y
−
2
=
x
⇒
6
