Hey there !
Solution:
Let the two digits be x and y
=> x + y = 7 => Equation 1
Also let the original number be 10x + y
Now the number obtained while reversing is 10y + x
It is given that number obtained by interchanging digits is 27 more than the original number.
=> 27 + 10x + y = 10 y + x
=> 27 = 10y - y + x - 10x
=> 27 = 9y - 9x
Dividing by 9 throughout the equation we get,
=> 3 = y - x => Equation 2
Solving Equation 1 and Equation 2, we get,
y + x = 7
y - x = 3
________
2y = 10
_________
=> y = 10 / 2 = 5
=> y - x = 3
=> 5 - x = 3
=> 5 - 3 = x
=> x = 2
Hence x = 2, y = 5
Therefore Original Number = 10x + y
=> 10 ( 2 ) + 5
=> 20 + 5
=> 25
Hence the original number is 25.
Hope my answer helped !
