Given :
- Sum of two digits of a 2-digit number is 12.
- The digits are reversed, the new number so formed increasease by 36.
To find :
- The number =?
Step-by-step explanation :
Let the tens digit of the required number be x and the units digit be y.
Then, x + y = 12 ......(1)
Now, Required Number = (10x + y).
Number obtained on reversing the digits,
= (10y + x).
According to the question,
(10y + x) − (10x + y) = 36
9y − 9x = 36
y − x = 4 .....(2)
On adding (1) and (2), we get,
x + y + y - x = 4 + 12
2y = 16
y = 16/2
y = 8
On, putting the value of y = 8, we get,
y - x = 4
8 - x = 4
-x = 4 - 8
-x = - 4
x = 4
Therefore, We got the value of, x = 4.
Hence, the required number is 48.
