let the two digit number be xy (x- tens digit & y- units digit)
so number value=10x+y
reversed digit is yx and its value is 10y+x
given 3x = 2+4y --------------1 (so x>y and also xy>yx)
and also given that
(10x+y)-(10y+x) = 2(x+y)-2
=> 9x-9y = 2x+2y-2
=> 7x = 11y-2 ----------------2
multiply equation-1 by 7 and equation-2 by 3 and then subtract
we get 14+28y = 33y-6
=> 5y=20
=> y=4
and 3x=2+16=18
so x=6
so the two digit number is 64
