Let the digit in unit's place be x
digit in ten's place = x - 2
∴no. = 10(x-2) + x=10x-20+x=11x - 20
∴3(11x - 20) + {6/7×(11x - 2)}=108
or, 33x - 60 +(66x - 12)/7 = 108
or,231x- 420 +66x - 12 = 108 × 7
or,297x - 432 = 756
or, 297x = 756+432=1188
or, x=1188/297
or, x=4
∴sum of the digit of the no. = x-2+x = 2x-2 = 8 - 2 = 6
digit in ten's place = x - 2
∴no. = 10(x-2) + x=10x-20+x=11x - 20
∴3(11x - 20) + {6/7×(11x - 2)}=108
or, 33x - 60 +(66x - 12)/7 = 108
or,231x- 420 +66x - 12 = 108 × 7
or,297x - 432 = 756
or, 297x = 756+432=1188
or, x=1188/297
or, x=4
∴sum of the digit of the no. = x-2+x = 2x-2 = 8 - 2 = 6
