Let the tens digit be A, the ones digit be B.
\n" ); document.write( "The number is then \"A%2A10%2BB\".
\n" ); document.write( "\"The product of the two-digit number and its tens digit is 54.\"
\n" ); document.write( "1.\"%28A%2A10%2BB%29%2AA=54\"
\n" ); document.write( "1.\"10A%5E2%2BAB=54\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"the sum of the digits when added to the number gives a result of 36\"
\n" ); document.write( "2.\"A%2BB%2B%28A%2A10%2BB%29=36\"
\n" ); document.write( "2.\"11A%2B2B=36\"
\n" ); document.write( "From eq. 2,
\n" ); document.write( "2.\"11A%2B2B=36\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"2B=36-11A\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"B=18-%2811%2F2%29A\"
\n" ); document.write( "Subsitute this value into eq. 1 and solve for A.
\n" ); document.write( "1.\"10A%5E2%2BAB=54\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"10A%5E2%2BA%2818-%2811%2F2%29A%29=54\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"20A%5E2%2BA%2836-11A%29=108\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"20A%5E2%2B36A-11A%5E2=108\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"9A%5E2%2B36A-108=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"A%5E2%2B4A-12=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"%28A%2B6%29%28A-2%29=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "A negative value for A wouldn't make sense for this problem.
\n" ); document.write( "We'll only use the positive value.
\n" ); document.write( "\"A-2=0\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"A=2\"
\n" ); document.write( "From eq. 2,
\n" ); document.write( "\"B=18-%2811%2F2%29A\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"B=18-%2811%2F2%292\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"B=18-11\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"B=7\"
\n" ); document.write( "The two digit number is 27.
