Solution

The correct option is B 21
Let the unit place digit =x
Ten's place digit =2x
Number formed = 10×2x+x=20x+x=21x
Reversing the digit:
Unit digit =2x
Ten's digit =x
New number formed = 10×x+2x=12x
The sum of the number is 33.
21x+12x=33
33x=33
x=1
So, the number is 21.

So, option B is correct.
