Answer :
72
Solution :
Let the tens digit and the unit digit of the required two digits number be x and y respectively .
Thus ,
The required number = 10x + y
Now ,
According to the question ,
The tens digit of the required number is 5 more than its unit digit .
Thus ,
x = y + 5 ----------(1)
Also ,
It is given that ,
The sum of both the digits of the number is ⅛ of the number .
Thus ,
=> x + y = ⅛ of (10x + y)
=> x + y = ⅛•(10x + y)
=> 8(x + y) = 10x + y
=> 8x + 8y = 10x + y
=> 8x + 8y - 10x - y = 0
=> 7y - 2x = 0 ----------(2)
Now ,
Putting x = y + 5 in eq-(2) , we get ;
=> 7y - 2x = 0
=> 7y - 2(y + 5) = 0
=> 7y - 2y - 10 = 0
=> 5y - 10 = 0
=> 5y = 10
=> y = 10/5
=> y = 2
Now ,
Putting y = 2 in eq-(1) , we get ;
=> x = y + 5
=> x = 2 + 5
=> x = 7
