Question

I am a two digit number. My ten’s digit is 3 more than my unit’s digit. If you interchange the digits, the new number obtained is 2 more than twice the original number. Who am I?​

Answer 1

Please follows me and I will follows you mark me brainliest.

Let the digit in units place be x. 

Then, digit in ten's place =3x

So, original number =10(3x)+x=31x

On interchanging the digits, new number =10x+3x=13x

According to the given condition,

31x+13x=88

⇒44x=88⇒x=2

So, the original number is 31x or 31×2=62.

On the other hand, if we consider the digit in ten's place as x, then the digit in unit's place will be 3x.

So, the resulting number we get is 26.

Here, both answers are correct, as 26+62=88.

Answer 2

Let the digit in units place be x. 

Then, digit in ten's place =3x

So, original number =10(3x)+x=31x

On interchanging the digits, new number =10x+3x=13x

According to the given condition,

31x+13x=88

⇒44x=88⇒x=2

So, the original number is 31x or 31×2=62.

On the other hand, if we consider the digit in ten's place as x, then the digit in unit's place will be 3x.

So, the resulting number we get is 26.

Here, both answers are correct, as 26+62=88.
