Question

the ratio of a two digit number to the sum of the digits of that number is 4:1. if the digit in the ones place is 3 more than the digit in the tens place, then what's the number?​

Answer 1

Answer:

36

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us say that the digits are x and y.

y = x + 3.

So, the number is x, x + 3

In algebraic form, it will be:-

10x + x + 3 = 11x + 3

Sum of digits = x + x + 3 = 2x + 3

According to the question,

11x + 3 = 4(2x + 3)

11x + 3 = 8x + 12

3x = 9

x = 3

So, the number is 36.
