Step-by-step explanation:
Let the digits be x&y
According to problem,
The difference of the digits.= 3
x - y = 3
x = 3 + y -----------------eqn(1)
Let the no.be 10x + y(general form of 2 digit number)
On inter changing the digits,the no.becomes 10y + x
If the original no.and interchanged no.are added,we get 143(given)
So,
10x + y + 10y + x = 143
11x + 11y = 143
On taking 11 as common,
11(x + y) = 143
x + y = 143/11
x + y = 13 ----------------eqn(2)
Substitute x = 3 + y in eqn(2)
(3 + y) + y = 13
2y + 3 = 13
2y = 13-3
2y = 10
y = 10/2
y = 5
Put y = 5 in eqn(1)
x = 3 + 5
x = 8
We assumed that number = 10x + y
So,
