Question

a two digit number is 4 times the sum of its digits and twice the product of its digits. find the number

Answer 1

SOLUTION :

Let the digit at the tens and units place be x and y .

Two digit number = 10x + y

A T.Q

Number = 4(sum of the digits) & Number = 2(product of the digits)

10x + y = 4(x + y)                 And 10x + y = 2xy …………(1)

10x + y = 4x + 4y  

10x - 4x = 4y - y  

6x - 3y = 0  

3(2x - y) = 0  

2x - y = 0  

2x = y ……………….(2)

Put this value of y in eq 1

10x + y = 2xy

10x + 2x = 2x(2x)  

12x =  4x²

4x² - 12x = 0

4x(x - 3) = 0

4x = 0  or (x - 3) = 0

x = 0 or x = 3

Since, the given number is a two digit number so its tens digit cannot be zero ( x ≠ 0 )

Therefore , x = 3

Put this value of x in eq 2,

y = 2x

y = 2 (3)

y = 6

Required number = 10x + y  

= 10(3) + 6

= 30 + 6

Required number = 36

Hence, the Required two digit number is 36 .
