Answer:
62
Step-by-step explanation:
suppose digits are x & y where x is tens digit
then,
10x+y is the number
when digits are reverse the new number will be written as
10y+x
from the question,
(10x+y)-(10y+x)= 36
9x-9y = 36
9 (x-y)= 36
x-y=4 ............. .....................equation (1)
also,
in number tens digit is 3 time of unit placed digit
then,
x= 3y ............ ....................equation (2)
from equation 1 & 2,
3y-y = 4
2y = 4
y = 2
so from equation 2
x= 3y = 3×2 = 62
now the original number = 10x+y = 10×6+2 = 62
