• The sum of the digits of a two digit number is 12
if 18 is added to it, the digits
digits are reversed. Find
the number
Answers
▶⏩ Let the unit digit be x,
=> and , tens digit be y.
→A/Q
↪➡ x + y = 12. .....................(1).
=> The real number is x + 10y.
=> And the reversed number is 10x + y.
▶⏩Now,
↪➡ x + 10y + 18 = 10x + y.
↪➡ 10y - y + 18 = 10x -x.
↪➡ 9y + 18 = 9x.
↪➡ 18 = 9x - 9y.
↪➡ 9x - 9y = 18.
↪➡ 9( x - y ) = 18.
↪➡ x - y = 18/9.
↪➡ x - y = 2. ......................(2)
▶⏩ Add in equation (1) and (2).
↪➡ x + y + x - y = 12 + 2.
↪➡ 2x = 14.
↪➡ x = 14/2.
→ x = 7.
=> put the value of ‘x’ in equation (2).
↪➡ 7 - y = 2.
↪➡ -y = 2 - 7.
→ y = 5.
▶⏩ Hence, the obtained number is:-)
↪➡ x + 10y.
= 7 + 10 × 5.
= 57.
Answer:
57
Step-by-step explanation:
suppose the number is 10a+b,it's obvious a>2 since a+b=12
As 10a+b+18=10*b+a
So 9(b-a)=18
b-a=2
Also a+b=12 ,so a=5,b=7
