Question

2. The sum of the digits of a two digit number is 22
The number obtained by interchanging the two
digit number is 22. The number obtained by
interchanging the two digits exceeds the
number
given by 18.
. Find the number​

Answer 1

Answer:

Let us assume x and y are the two digits of the number

Therefore, two-digit number is = 10x + y and the reversed number = 10y + x

Given:

x + y = 12

y = 12 – x -----------1

Also given:

10y + x - 10x – y = 18

9y – 9x = 18

y – x = 2 -------------2

Substitute the value of y from eqn 1 in eqn 2

12 – x – x = 2

12 – 2x = 2

2x = 10

x = 5

Therefore, y = 12 – x = 12 – 5 = 7

Therefore, the two-digit number is 10x + y = (10*5) + 7 = 57
