      Question

      A two-digit number has a digit-sum of 9. Subtracting 27

      from it gives the number with digits reversed. What is the number?
      A 63 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 56 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 73 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 65 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      ATQ,
      a + b = 9 --------- (I)

      10b + a - 27 = 10a + b
      β‡’ 9b - 9a = 27

      β‡’ b - a = 3 --------- (II)

      Add both:

      a + b + b - a = 9 + 3

      β‡’ 2b = 12 β‡’ b = 6

      Then a = 3

      Required number = 10 Γ— 6 + 3 = 63
