a number consists of two digits whose sum is 9 if 27 is subtracted from the number its digits are interchanged find the original number
Answers
Original Number = 63
GiVeN :
- A number consists of two digits whose sum is 9
- If 27 is subtracted from the number its digits are interchanged.
To FiNd :
- The Original Number.
SoLuTiOn :
Let the digit at the tens place be x
Let the digit at the units place be y
Original Number : 10x + y
- Sum of the digits is 9
Constituting it mathematically,
----> 1
- Subtracting 27 from the number, the digits get interchanged.
Constituting it mathematically,
----> 2
Solve equation 1 and 2 simultaneously by elimination method.
Add equation 1 to 2,
Substitute x = 6 in equation 1,
ANSWER:-
Given:
A number consists of two digits whose sum is 9, if 27 is subtracted from the number its digits are interchanged.
To find:
The original number.
Explanation:
Let the unit's digit be R &
Let the ten's digit be M.
We have,
The two digit whose sum is 9
R+M=9........................(1)
Therefore,
- The original number is 10R+M
- The reversed number is 10M+R
If 27 is subtracted from the original number. Its digit are reversed.
So,
→ 10R+M-27=10M+R
→ 10R-R+M-10M=27
→ 9R -9M= 27
→ 9(R-M= 3)
→ R-M=3..........................(2)
Using Substitution Method:
From equation (1),we get;
⇒ R+M=9
⇒ R= 9-M.....................(3)
Putting the value of M in equation (2),we get;
⇒ 9-M-M=3
⇒ 9-2M= 3
⇒ -2M= 3-9
⇒ -2M= -6
⇒ M=
Putting the value of M in equation (1),we get;
⇒ R+3=9
⇒ R= 9-3
⇒ R= 6
Thus,
The original number is 10(6)+3
The original number is 60+3= 63.
