Let the unit digit=X
Tens digit=12-X
The number=10(12-X)+X
The number after reversal=10(X)+12-X
The equation
10(12-X)+X-36 =10X+12-X
120–10X+X-36=10X+12-X
-10X+X-10X+X=12–120–36
-18X=-144
18X=144
X=144/18
X=8x
X=unit digit=8
Tens digit=12–8=4
The number=10(4)+8=48
Reverse number=84
84 is 36 more than 48
So the desired number is 48

Answer:
let's see..
let's digit be x and y
original number be 10x +y
then,
x+y= 12................1)
10x+y +36= 10y+x
9x-9y=-36...............2)
then
multiply eqn 1 by 9 we get,
9x+9y=108..............3)
solving eqn 2 and 3 by eliminating methods
9x-9y=-36
9x+9y=108
18x=72
x=4
putting the value in eq 1)
4+y= 12
y=8..
now original number =10x +y
= 10×4+8
=48
