the digit in the units place of a two digit number is twice the digit in its tens place . the quotient obtained when the number is divided by the sum of its digits is 4 . find the number
Answers
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
GIVEN,
Let 10th place digit = x
Unit place digit = 2x
Number
10x + 2x
= 12x
sum of digits
= x + 2x
= 3x
12x/3x
=4
4 = 4
so,
x may be 1,2,3,4.
The number is 12
GIVEN
The digit in the units place of a two digit number is twice the digit in its tens place . The quotient obtained when the number is divided by the sum of its digits is 4.
TO FIND
The number.
SOLUTION
We can simply solve the above problem as follows;
Let the digit at tens place by x and the digit at ones place be y
So the number = 10x + y
It is given,
y = 2x
Now,
The number = 10x + 2x
Sum of digits = x + 2x = 3x
ATQ,
Solving for x
12x = 12x
x = 1
The value of x = 1
Value of y = 2x = 2×1 = 2
The two-digit number = xy = 12
Hence, The number is 12
