sum of a two digit number is 9 interchange the digits it is found out that the resulting number is greater than original number by 27 what is the digit number(answer in one variable)
Answers
Step-by-step explanation:
The new number is greater than the old number by 27, i.e. Adding the two equations, we get 2y = 12 or y = 6. Thus, x = 3. Therefore, the original number is 36
Step-by-step explanation:
The sum of the two digits = 9
On interchanging the digits, the resulting new number is greater than the original number by 27.
Let us assume the digit of units place = x
Then the digit of tens place will be = (9 – x)
Thus the two-digit number is 10(9 – x) + x
Let us reverse the digit
the number becomes 10x + (9 – x)
As per the given condition
10x + (9 – x) = 10(9 – x) + x + 27
⇒ 9x + 9 = 90 – 10x + x + 27
⇒ 9x + 9 = 117 – 9x
On rearranging the terms we get,
⇒ 18x = 108
⇒ x = 6
So the digit in units place = 6
Digit in tens place is
⇒ 9 – x
⇒ 9 – 6
⇒ 3
Hence the number is 36
