the sum of the digits of a 2 digit number is 9.lf it is found that the resulting new number is greater than the original number by 27 what is the original number
anybody help me...

Answer:
36
Step-by-step explanation:
let the ten's place digit be x.
let the unit's place digit be y.
therefore, the number is = (10x+y)
after swapping the two digits,
the unit's place digit becomes x and the ten's place digit becomes y.
there, the new number is = (10y+x)
according to the question,
sum of the two digits is 9
i.e.
x + y = 9 --------- eqn. 1
again , the new number is greater than the original number by 27 , therefore we can say -
(10y-x)-(10x-y)=27
⇒10y-x-10x+y=27
⇒9y-9x=27
⇒ (-9)(x-y)=9 x 3
⇒ x-y= -3 ------------ eqn. 2
solving eqn. 1 and eqn. 2 by elimination method :
x + y = 9
x - y = -3
--------------
⇒2x= 6
⇒x=3
putting the value of x in eqn. 1 we get:
x+y=9
⇒3+y=9
⇒y=9-3
⇒y=6
therefore the original number should be
=10x+y
putting the values of x and y
10x3 + 6 = 36
