a two digit number is equal to 7 times the sum of its digit the number formed by reversing its digit is less than the original number is 18 find the original number
Answers
Original number= 10y+x
According to the question
10y+x =7 (x+y)
10y+x = 7x+7y
7x+7y-10y-x=0
6x-3y=0
2x-y=0 .........(1)
According to the question
10x+y=10y+x-18
10x+y-10y-x = -18
9x-9y= -18
x-y= -2 .........(2)
Subtract (2) from (1), we get
x=2
Substitute the value of x in (2), we get
2-y= -2
-y=-2-2
-y = -4
y =4
Therefore the original number is 42
A two digit number is 7 times the sum of its digits.
The number formed by reversing the digits is 18 less than the original number.
The number
Let us assume that the two digits of that number are x and y respectively.
so, The Number formed by them would be, 10x+y
It is also stated that, the number is 7 times the sumSo, we can make an equation by these points as -
↪(10x + y) ____(EQ.1)
↪10x + y = 7(x+y)
↪10x + y = 7x + 7y
↪10x - 7x = 7y - y
↪3x = 6y
↪x = 6/3 y
↪x = 2y ____(EQ.2)
The number formed by reversing the digits is, 18 less than the original number
↪10x + y - (10y + x) = 18
↪10x + y - 10y - x = 18
↪9x - 9y = 18
↪9(x-y) = 18
↪(x-y) = 18/9
↪(x-y) = 2 ____(EQ.3)
Now, putting the value of (EQ.1) to (EQ.2),
↪x - y = 2
↪2y - y = 2
↪y = 2
↪x = 2×2 = 4
Now, as we got our values,
Putting the values of (EQ.2,3) in (EQ.1)
↪THE NUMBER = (10x + y)
↪THE NUMBER = (10 × 4 + 2)
↪THE NUMBER = (40 + 2)
