3. Given that 45 is the difference between a number and that
digits of the number is 13. then find the number.
and the answer is 49
Answers
Correct question :-
Given that 45 is the difference between a number and that formed by reversing it's digit. if the sum of digit of the number is 13 then find the number
Given :-
- 45 is the difference between a number and that formed by reversing it's digit.
- The sum of digit of the number is 13
To find :-
- The number.
Solution :-
Let the digit in the units place be x
Let the digit in the tens place be y
As per the first condition,
Original two digit number = 10y + x
Reversed two digit number = 10x + y
Difference = 45
Let's represent this condition mathematically,
Place the reversed two digit number at the forefront of the whole equation,
(10x + y) - ( 10y + x) = 45
10x + y - 10y - x = 45
10x - x - 9y = 45
9x - 9y = 45
9 (x - y) = 45
x - y =
x - y = 5 ----->1
As per the second condition,
- The sum of digit of the number is 13
So, here we can form our 2nd equation,
x + y = 13 ---->2
Add equation 1 to 2, and solve them simultaneously,
x - y = 5
x + y = 13
----------------
2x = 18
x =
x = 9
•°•Number in the units place = x = 9
Substitute, x = 9 in equation 1
x - y = 5
9 - y = 5
- y = 5 - 9
- y = - 4
y = 4
•°•Number in the tens place = y = 4
Number formed = 49
For first case :-
- 45 is the difference between a number and that formed by reversing it's digit
Number = 94
Reverse = 49
Difference = 45
94 - 49 = 45
45 = 45
LHS = RHS.
For second case :-
- The sum of digit of the number is 13,
Number = 49
Sum = 13
4 + 9 = 13
13 = 13
LHS = RHS.
Hence answer is verified.
