Let the digit at the tens place be x.
Let the digit at the units place be y.
Original Number = 10x + y
- Sum of digits = 9
Constituting it mathematically,
----> (1)
- When 27 is subtracted from the original number it's digit are interchanged.
Altered Number = 10y + x
Constituting it mathematically,
----> (2)
Solve equation 1 and equation 2 simultaneously by elimination method.
Add equation 1 to equation 2,
x + y = 9
x - y = 3
--------------
2x = 12
Substitute x = 6 in equation 1,
