66

Solution :

Let the two digits number is xy, this can be represented as 10x + y

on reversing the number thee number become yx, now this can be represented as 10y + x

according to the question the sum of two digit number and the number reversing the digits is equal to 66

10x + y + 10y + x = 66

11x + 11y = 66

x + y = 6...........(eq 1)

the digit of the number differ by 2,hence it can be represented algebraically

x - y = 2...........(eq2)

Now solve these two equations,here I am using Elimination method,add both equations

x + y = 6 + x - y = 2

2x = 8

x = 8/2

x = 4

4 + y = 6

y = 6 - 4

y = 2

Hence number is 42. its reverse number is 24.

Verification:

Here,

42 + 24 = 66

4 - 2 = 2,

Also

24 + 42 = 66

4 - 2 = 2

Answer:

✳️ Given ✳️

\longmapsto The sum of a two digit number and the number obtained by reversing the digits is 66. If the digits of the number differ by 2.

✳️ To Find ✳️

\longmapsto What is the number.

✳️ Solution ✳️

✒️ Let's assume the digit at unit's place as x and ten's place as y. Then, the number will be 10y + x.

✏️ The two digits of the number are differing by 2.

\Rightarrow x - y = 2 ....... (1)

\Rightarrow x - y = - 2 ...... (2)

✏️ Now after reversing the order of the digits, the number becomes 10x + y.

According to the question,

\longrightarrow (10x + y) + (10y + x) = 66

\implies 10x + y + 10y + x = 66

\implies 11x + 11y = 66

\implies 11(x + y) = 66

\implies x + y = \sf\dfrac{\cancel{66}}{\cancel{11}}

\dashrightarrow x + y = 6 ..... (3)

✏️ On adding the equation no (1) and (2) we get,

\implies (x - y) + (x + y) = 2 + 6

\implies x - y + x + y = 8

\implies 2x = 8

\implies x = \sf\dfrac{\cancel{8}}{\cancel{2}}

\dashrightarrow x = 4

✏️ Putting the value of x in the equation no (3) get,

\Rightarrow 4 - y = 2

\implies y = 4 - 2

\dashrightarrow y = 2

Hence, the required number is 10 × 2 + 4 = 24

Now,

✏️ On adding the equation no (2) and (3) we get,

\Rightarrow (x - y) + (x + y) = - 2 + 6

\implies x - y + x + y = 4

\implies 2x = 4

\implies x = \sf\dfrac{\cancel{4}}{\cancel{2}}

\dashrightarrow x = 2

✏️ Putting the value of x in the equation no (3) we get,

\Rightarrow 2 - y = - 2

\implies y = 2 + 2

\dashrightarrow y = 4

Hence, the required number is 10 × 4 + 2 = 42

\therefore There are two such possible numbers is 24 and 42.
