Question

in a two digit number, the digit in units place is twice less that in the tens place and if 2 is subtracted from the sum of the digits the difference is equal to 1/6 of the number. find the original number​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be 10x +y

take unit place y = 2x  (the digit in units place is twice less that in the tens place)

10 x + 2x = 12x

sum of digit = 2x +x = 3x

according to question ,

3x -2 = 1/6 * 12x

3x - 2 = 2x

3x - 2x = 2

x = 2

so the numbers is 12x = 12 * 2 = 24

The original number is 24
