The sum of the digits in a 2 digit number is 13. The tens are greater than the ones so what is the digit number
----------------------
Equations:
Let the number be 10t+u where t is the ten's digit and u is the unit's dig.
----
t + u = 13
t - u > 0
----
2t > 13
===
t 7 pr 8 pr 9
---
If t = 7 then 10t+u = 76
If t = 8 then 10t+u = 85
If t = 9 then 10t+u = 94
