Answer:
Let the two digits number be 10y+x.
where x and y are two digits
When number is reversed it becomes 10x+y
Sum of two digits =x+y
Then, the equations formed are
10y+x−18=10x+y
y−x=2 (1)
Also, x+y=12 (2)
Adding equation (1) and (2), we get
x=5 and y=7
Hence, the number is 75.

Step-by-step explanation:
The solution can be obtained by letting x be the 'tens digit', and y be the unit digit, so that the original number is 10x+y. Then 10x+y+18=10y+x, because the digits are reversed. This simplifies to 9x+18=9y, or x+2=y.
