Question

A three digit number consisting of three different digits has its digits reversed, resulting in a smaller number. The smaller number is subtracted from the original number. The answer is a number composed of the same three digits in a different order. What is the original number?

Answer 1

Answer:

• 954

Step-by-step explanation:

• Good question, thanks first of all
• I won't be able to solve the whole question here, I will just give you a hint
• Take XYZ digits, original no.: XYZ
• Reversed no.: ZYX (notice that Y is at the same place)
• Because the resultant number is smaller than the original one, X has to be greater than Z, right?!
• Now what you will have to do is subtraction by writing on paper clearly XYZ-ZYX, This is because now we will understand the logic
• Is Z-X possible now? See in your paper, it will give ans. in minus, thus we will have to borrow... Because of borrowing Y will decrease and again we will have to borrow, by doing this we will make equations to solve
