Question 860356: Please help me solve this question.A certain between 10 and 100 is 8 times the sum of its digits, and if 45 is subtracted from it the digit will be reversed.find the number Answer by mananth(16946) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! let the number be xy
value of number = 10x+y
10x+y = 8(x+y)
10x+y =8x+8y
2x-7y=0....................(1)
10x+y-45 = 10y+x
9x-9y=45
x-y = 5.................(2)
multiply by -2
-2x+2y=-10
add to (1)
-5y=-10
y=2
x-y =5
x=7
Number = 72
