the sum of the digit of a 2 digit number is 10. the number obtained by interchanging the digits exceeds the original number by 36 . find the original number .
Answers
original number=xy
their sum, x+y=10...........(1)
on interchanging the number
(10y+x)=(10x+y)+36
9y-9x=36
y-x=4........................(2)
adding (1) & (2) we get
2y=14
y=7
putting the value of y in (1) we get
x=3
the original number is xy i.e. 37

Answer: Original number is 37
Step-by-step explanation:Firstly we have rewrite the word problem into Mathematical form:
Let's assume :
x = the 10's digits
y = units
Then the original number:
10x + y = two digit number
Now lets write down what's given in the problem:
x + y = 10
Re-written as: y= 10 -x (equation 1)
We are also told the number obtained by interchanging the two digits exceeds the number by 36:
interchanged = original + 36
10y + x = 10x + y + 36
9y = 9x + 36
y = x + 4
Now equate the above equation to equation 1
10 - x = x +4
2x = 6
x = 3
Now find y:
x+ y =10
y= 10 - 3
y = 7
Now we are required to find the original number. From above the equation of the original number is:
10x + y = 10(3) + 7 =37
The original number is 37
