the sum of digit of a two digit number is 12 if 18 is added to it the digits are reserved find of the number
Answers
let x and y be at the unit and tens place of the two digit no.
hence the digit formed will be (x + 10y)
so we are given that
x + y = 12 ............[1]
and adding 18 to the no. will reversed the digit,
so x + 10y + 18 = y + 10x
9x - 9y = 18
x - y = 2...............[2]
solving equation [1] and [2] we get
x = 7, y = 5
hence the no. is x + 10y = 7 + 10×5 = 57
Answer : 57
Step-by-step explanation:
★ Answer :
- The original number is 57.
★ Question :
- The sum of digit of a two digit number is 12. If 18 is added to it the digits are reserved. Find of the number.
★ To find :
- The original number.
★ Solution :
Given that the sum of both the digits is 12.
➻ Let us assume :
- Unit's digit = x
- Ten's digit = 12 - x
∴ The number = (12 - x) × 10 + x
On reversing the digits, we have x at ten's place and (12 -x) at unit's place.
∴ The new number = x × 10 + (12 - x)
➻ According to the given information,
➞ x × 10 + (12 - x) = (12 - x) × 10 + x + 18
➞ 10x + 12 - x = 120 - 10x + x + 18
➞ 9x + 12 = -9x + 138
➞ 9x + 9x = 138 - 12
➞ 18x = 126
➞ x = 126/18
➞ x = 7
➻ Therefore,
- Unit's digit = x = 7
- Ten's digit = (12 - x) = (12 - 7) = 5
Hence, the original number = 57.
