Let the ten's digit be x and one's digit be y.
The number will be 10x + y.
Given product of its digits is 15
xy = 15
y = 15/x --- (1).
Given that when 18 is added to the number the digits get interchanged.
10x + y + 18 = 10y + x
9x - 9y + 18 = 0
x - y + 2 = 0 ------- (2)
Substitute (1) in (2), we get
x - (15/x) + 2 = 0
x^2 + 2x - 15 = 0
x^2 + 5x - 3x - 15 = 0
x(x + 5) - 3(x + 5) = 0
(x+5)(x-3) = 0
x = -5,3.
Since the digits cannot be negative, x = 3.
Substitute x = 3 in (1)
y = 15/3
= 5.
The number = 10x + y
= 10 * 3 + 5
= 30 + 5
= 35.
Hope this helps!
