A number consists of two digits of which tens digit exceeds the unit digit by . The number itself is equal to times the sum of its digits. Find the number.
Answers
Let the two digit number be : AB
Given : Ten's digit exceeds the unit digit by 7
A = B + 7
Given : The Number itself is equal to 10 times the sum of its digits
AB = 10(A + B)
★ AB can be written as : 10A + B
(Because : A is in Ten's place and B is in One's place)
10A + B = 10A + 10B
9B = 0
B = 0
A = (0 + 7) = 7
Answer : The Two Digit Number is 70
Let the number be xy, where x is the digit at ten's place and y is the digit at one's place.
Now, it is given that
==> x=y+7. -----------> (1)
Also, we know that
A two digit number can be written as
==> 10A+B, where A is ten's digit and B is one's digit
So, our number is 10x+y.
According to question,
==> 10x+y=10(x+y)
==> 10x+y=10x+10y
==> y=0
Now, from (1)
x=y+7
x=0+7
x=7
Hence, the number is 10(7)+0=70.
