    Question

    Sum of digits of a two-digit number is 9. When 27 is

    subtracted from the number, its digits get interchanged. Find the original number.
    A 47 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 77 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 63 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 55 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    ATQ, Let ones and tens digit of the number be a and b respectively. So, original number = 10b + a. Reverse number = 10a + b. So, a + b = 9 --------- (I) And, 10b + a тИТ 27 = 10a + b. Or, 9b тИТ 9a = 27. Or, b тИТ a = 3 ---------- (II). On adding equation I and II, We get, a + b + b тИТ a = 9 + 3. Or, 2b = 12. Or, b = 6. On putting value of b in equation I, We get, 6 + a = 9. Or, a = 3. Required number = 10 ├Ч 6 + 3 = 63.
