Lets say the 2 digit number is xy
So the value of the original number is 10x + y (
If you reverse the digits then the value of the new number is 10y + x
.. and we know that this number is 27 more than the original .. so ...
(10y + x) = (10x + y) + 27
Take an x away from each side
10y = 9x + y + 27
Take a y away from each side
9y = 9x + 27
.. and we can divide both sides by 9 to make it a bit simpler
y = x + 3
So we are looking for a 2 digit number in which one digit is 3 more than the other.
We are also told that the sum of the digits is 13
x + y = 13
Since we know that y = x + 3 (from above) we can substitute for y
x + (x + 3) = 13
So x = 5 which means that y = 8
Therefore the original number was 58, which when reversed becomes 85
Hope it helps u!!

x+y=13
(10y+x)-(10x+y)=27
9y-9x=27
y-x=3
y=x+3
equation at the top
x+y=13
x+x+3=13
2x=10
x=5
y=8 number is 58
