Question -

The sum of a two digit number and the number obtained by reversing the order of its digits is 99. If the digits differ by 3, find the number. (C.B.S.E. 2002)



Answer -

Let the unitтАЩs digit of the number = x
and tenтАЩs digit = y
Number = x + 10y
By reversing the digits, the new number will be = y +10x
According to the condition,
x + 10y + y + 10x = 99
=> 11x + 11y = 99
=> x + y = 9 тАж.(i)
and x тАУ y = 3 тАж.(ii)
Adding we get,
2x = 12
x = 6
and subtracting, 2y = 6
y= 3
Number = x + 10y = 6 + 10 x 3 = 6 + 30 = 36
