Tens digit = t
\n" ); document.write( "Units digit = t + 2
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "10t + (t + 2) = 4(t + (t + 2))
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "10t + t + 2 = 4(t + t + 2)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "11t + 2 = 4(2t + 2)
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "11t + 2 = 8t + 8
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "3t = 6
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "t = 2
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "Tens digit = t = 2
\n" ); document.write( "Units digit = t + 2 = 2 + 2 = 4
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "The number is 24. \n" ); document.write( "
