Solution

Let the digit at tens place be x, then the digit at ones place be x+1.Therefore, the two digit number is 10x+x+1=11x+1.Now, the number formed by adding 9 to it is 11x+1+9=11x+10.According, to the question by adding 9 to the above number the digits get interchanged, therefore11x+10=10x+1+x11x+10=11x+1010=10which is true for all possible values of x, i.e. x=1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9.Therefore, the required numbers are12,23.34,45,56,67,78,89.
