In two digit number,the product of its digits is 18.if the places of the digits are interchanged,the number so formed is greater than the original number by 27,find the original number.
----
Let the number be 10t+u
----
Equations:
t*u = 18
10u+t - (10t+u) = 27
-----
Simplify:
t*u = 18
9u - 9t = 27
-----
t*u = 18
u - t = 3
----
t*u = 18
u = t+3
-----
t(t+3) = 18
t^2 + 3t -18 = 0
(t-6)(t+3) = 0
Positive solution:
t = 6
=====
solve for "u":
u = t + 3
u = 9
-------
Ans: 10t+u = 10*6+9 = 69
