Answer:
Ratio of the two digits = 1:2
Define the number:
Let the digit in the units place be x
And the digit in the tens place be y
→ The number is 10y + x
Form equation (1):
Ratio of the two digits = 1:2 ⇒ x = 2y
Form equation (2):
18 is added to the number the digits,
interchange their places
→ 10y + x + 18 = 10x + y
→ 9y + 18 = 9x
⇒y + 2 = x =>
⇒ x = y + 2
Solve x and y:
x = 2y--- (1)
X-y + 2 {2}
Equation (1) and (2):
2y = y + 2
y = 2
x = 2y (1)
x = 2(2) = 4
Find the number:
Number = 10y + x = 10(2) + 4 = 24
Answer: The number is 24
