The sum of the digit of a two digit number is 9 the number obtained by interchanging the digits is 27 less than the original number find the original number.
Answers
Let unit digit be X
Let tenth digit be y
Number = X +10y
A/q
X+y= 9
10x + y = X +10y+ 27
9x - 9y = 27
X - y = 3
X+y = 9
X -y=3
2x = 12
X = 12/2 = 6
6 + y= 9
Y= 9 -6 = 3
Number = 36
- The sum of the digit of a two digit number is 9
- The number obtained by interchanging the digits is 27 less than the original number
- The original number.
Let the digit in the tens place be x
Let the digit in the units place be y
Original two digit number = 10x + y
As per first condition :-
- The sum of the digit of a two digit number is 9
Representing it mathematically we get our first equation,
x + y = 9 -----> 1
As per second condition :-
- the number obtained by interchanging the digits is 27 less than the original number
Number on interchanging the digit 10y + x
Interchanged number is 27 less than the original number.
Let's represent it mathematically.
10x + y = 10y + x - 27
10x - x = 10y - y - 27
9x = 9y - 27
9x - 9y = - 27
9 ( x - y) = - 27
x - y =
x - y = - 3 -----> 2
Add equation 1 to 2,
x + y = 9 ----> 1
x - y = - 3 ----> 2
------------------
2x = 6
x =
x = 3
Substitute x = 3 in equation 1,
x + y = 9 ----> 1
3 + y = 9
y = 9 - 3
y = 6
•°•Original Number = 10x + y
Original number = 10 × 3 + 6
Original number = 30 + 6
Original number = 36
