Answer:
54
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the digit at ten's place be x and the digit at one's place be y.
then no. will be 10x+y
GIVEN- xy=20...................(1)
also, 10x+y-9=10y+x
or, 10x-x+y-10y=9
9x-9y=9
9(x-y)=9
x-y=1...................(2)
x=1+y
IN EQ.(1) ,(1+y)y=20
y+y²=20
y² +y-20 =0
y²+5y-4y-20=0
y(y+5)-4(y+5)=20
(y+5)(y-4)=0
therefore,y=-5. or. y=4
y=-5 is not possible as y is a digit and digits are always positive.
THEREFORE,y=4 and x=1+y from EQ.(2)
x=5
no.=10x+y=. 10*5+4
no.=54
