A two digit number is such that the product of the digits is 16. When 54 is subtracted from the number, the digits are interchanged find the number.
Let the number be xy ( x > 0 and y > 0)
We know that xy = 10x + y
Given,
Also, given
10x+y−54=10y+x
9x−9y=54
x−y=6
But as the number is positive so the value of x is 8.
Therefore,
So the number is
xy=10x+y
=
