Answers
- The number = 28.
Given :–
- The sum of a number of two digits and of the number formed by reversing the digits = 110.
- The difference of the digits = 6.
To Find :–
- The number.
Solution :–
Let,
The unit's place digit be x.
The ten's place digit be y.
So,
The number = x + 10y
By reversing the digits = 10x + y
First we need to find the value of x.
According to the question,
➥ (x + 10y) + (10x + y) = 110
➥ 11x + 11y = 110
Take 11 as a common,
➥ 11(x + y) = 110
➥ x + y =
➥ x + y = 10 –––––(1)
Also given that,
The difference between the digits is 6.
So,
➥ x – y = 6 –––––(2)
Add both the equation (1) and (2),
➥ (x + y) + (x – y) = 10 + 6
➥ x + y + x – y = 16
➥ x + x + y – y = 16
➥ 2x + 0 = 16
➥ 2x = 16
➥ x =
➥ x = 8
Now, we need to find the value of y.
So, substitute the value of x in equation (1),
➥ x + y = 10
➥ 8 + y = 10
➥ y = 10 – 8
➥ y = 2
Now, we have to find the number.
So,
The number = x + 10y
Here we have,
- x = 8
- y = 2
➥ 8 + 10 (2)
➥ 8 + 20
➥ 28
Hence,
The number is 28.
