x + 26 = 18 x 3

x + 26 = 54

x = 54 - 26

x = 28

Answer 2

Answer:

let the no.in 10 place be x and once place be y

so original no.= 10x+y(1)

according to questions,

x+26=y/3

3x+78=y

3x-y=78(2)

from 1 and 2 equations

we get

x=6

now putting x in 1 equations

we get y= -60

original no.=10×6+(-60)
