The tens` digit of a two-digit number is 3 more than the units` digit. The number is 8 more than 6 times the sum of the digits.(85)(74)(52) or(41)
let the number be xy
ten's digit number = x = y+3.....or...x-y=3..............1
sum of digits =x+y.....6 times the sum = 6(x+y)=6x+6y
value of number= 10x+y = 8+6x+6y.....or....4x-5y=8....2
5*eqn.1-eqn.2
5x-5y-4x+5y=5*3-8=7
x=7
y=7-3=4
number is 74
