the sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 24 if the new number formed by reversing the digits is greater than the original number by 36 find the original number
Answers
EXPLANATION.
- GIVEN
The sum of the digit of a two digit number
is = 24.
if the new number formed by reversing the
digit is greater than the original number = 36.
Find the original number.
According to the question,
Let the tens place = x
Let the unit place = y
original number = 10x + y
reversing number = 10y + x
sum of digit of a two digit number= 24
=> x + y = 24 .......(1)
if the new number formed by reversing the
digit is greater than the original number = 36.
=> 10y + x - ( 10x + y) = 36
=> 10y + x - 10x - y = 36
=> 9y - 9x = 36
=> y - x = 4 ....(2)
From equation (1) and (2) we get,
=> 2y = 28
=> y = 14
put the value of y = 13 in equation (1)
we get,
=> x + 14 = 24
=> x = 10
Therefore,
original number = 10x + y
=> 10 X 10 + 14 = 114
I Thought This question is wrong.
Because Sum Of Two Digits can never Be 24
I'm seeing this after solving the question.
So SORRY.
Let :
- Unit Digit = y
- Tens Digit = x
Number : (10x + y)
x + y = 24 ... ( i )
New Number's :
- Unit Digit = x
- Tens Digit = y
New Number = (10y + x)
According to Question :
(10y + x) – (10x + y) = 36
10y + x – 10x –y = 36
9y – 9x = 36
– x + y = 4 .... ( ii )
Add ( i ) and ( ii )
We get,
2y = 28
y = 14
Putting The Value Of y in ( i )
x + y = 24
x + 14 = 24
x = 10
Hence, Number = (10x + y) = (10×10 + 14) = 114
Number = 114
