<b><u>Given :-</u></b>

The difference of the two digits of a number is 3.

x - y = 3 ....... ( i )

If this number is added to the number obtained by interchanging the digits, the sum is 99.

<b>Let the two - digit number be 10x + y </b>

When the number is reversed, the number becomes <b>10y + x </b>

<b><u>To Find :-</u></b>

The number

<b><u>Solution :-</u></b>

According to the Problem,

⇒ 10x + y + 10y + x = 99

⇒ 11x + 11y = 99

⇒ 11( x + y ) = 99

⇒ x + y = 9 ....... ( ii )

Adding eq ( i ) and eq ( ii ),

x + y = 9

x - y = 3

____________________

2x = 12

⇒ x = 6

Substituting value of x in eq ( ii ),

x + y = 9

⇒ 6 + y = 9

⇒ y = 9 - 6

⇒ y = 3

•°• The Number = 10x + y

= 10 × 6 + 3

= 63

<b><u>•°• The Required Number = 63 </u></b>


ananya2804: thanks a lot but the answer is 36 and not 63
IITGENIUS1234: no the answer is 63
IITGENIUS1234: if the answer is 36, the difference of the digits will be ( - 3 )
IITGENIUS1234: minus 3
ananya2804: okkk..
