Question

a number consists of two digits whose sun is five.when the digits are reversed,the number becomes greater by nine.find the number

Answer 1

HI !

Let the number be 10x +y  ,

    x = ten's place  , y = one's place

x + y = 5          ---> [1]

reversed no: ,

10y + x

10x+ y + 9 = 10y+x

9x - 9y = -9

x - y = -1            ---> [2]

Adding equations 1 and 2

x + y = 5

x - y = -1

======

2x = 4

x = 2

x -y = -1

2 - y = -1

2 + 1 = y

3 = y

the number is :-

10x + y 

10 x 2 + 3

  = 23

The no: is 23

Answer 2

the number is 23 and it's sum is five and when you reverse it the number is 32 which is greater than 9
