if the digits of the two digit number are reversed in such a way that the new number is greater than first by 54.
\n" ); document.write( " find the difference between the two digits.
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "Let 10a+b = the number
\n" ); document.write( "and
\n" ); document.write( "10b+a = the reversed number (new number)
\n" ); document.write( ":
\n" ); document.write( "(10b+a) - (10a+b) = 54
\n" ); document.write( "10b - b - 10a = 54
\n" ); document.write( "9b - 9a = 54
\n" ); document.write( "simplify, divide by 9
\n" ); document.write( "b - a = 6 the difference between the two digits
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" );
