The sum of the digits of a 2-digit number is 9. The number is 6 times the units digit. Find the number.
Answers
Answer:
The digit in the tens place is x
The digit in the ones place is y
The number is (10x + y)
Form equation 1 :
The sum of the digits is 9
x + y = 9
x = 9 - y
Form equation 2 :
The number is 6 times the units
10x + y = 6y
Put the two equations together:
x = 9 - y -------------------- [ 1 ]
10x + y = 6y -------------------- [ 2 ]
Find y:
Sub [ 1 ] into [ 2 ]:
10(9 - y) + y = 6y
90 - 10y + y = 6y
90 - 9y = 6y
15y = 90
y = 90 ÷ 15
y = 6
Find x:
When y = 6
x = 9 - 6
x = 3
Find the number
The number = 10x + y
The number = 10(3) + 6
The number = 36

The sum of two digit number is 9.
t + u = 9
u = (9-t)
The number is 6 times the unit digit.
10t + u = 6u
10t + u - 6u = 0
10t - 5u = 0
10t - 5(9-t) = 0
10t - 45 + 5t = 0
10t + 5t = 45
15t = 45
t = 45/15
t = 3 is the tens digit
then
9-3 = 6 is units digit
