Answer is 24.
Let the two-digit number = “ xy ”
Where x takes the “tens” place and y, the unit. Hence you can write the two-digit no. “ xy” as “(10x + y)”.
Product of digits equals 8; x(y) = 8 …….(1)
Adding 18 to the number reverses the digits;
xy + 18 = yx Or (10x + y) + 18 = (10y + x)
This simplifies to; 9x + 18 = 9y …….(2)
Multiplying eq/n (2) through by “y” gives; 9x(y) + 18(y)= 9y(y)……(3).
Substituting in x(y) = 8 from eq/n (1) into (3) gives; 9(8) + 18y = 9y^2, which reduces to 8 + 2y = y^2. This is a quadratic eq/n whose solution for y equals 4 & -2. For y = 4, x = 2 by substitution into eq/n (1).
Hence the two-digit no. xy = 24
