Question

the difference between a two digit number and the number obtained by interchanging the position of its digit is 36 what is the difference between two digits of that number​

Answer 1

Answer:

y - x = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let’s assume the unit place digit is x and tenth place digit is y. (x<y)

So,

10*y + x is our original two digit number

10*x + y is the number we get on interchanging the digits

According to the question,

=> (10*y + x) - (10*x + y) = 36

=> 10*y - y -10*x + x = 36

=> 9*y - 9*x = 36

=> 9*(y - x) = 36

=> y - x = 36/9

=> y - x = 4
