You can put this solution on YOUR website!
The difference between the first digit and the second digit of the two digit number is 12.
That alone tells you that there is no such number because the most any
two digits can differ by is 9 when you subtract the smallest digit 0 from
the largest digit 9 and get 9-0 = 9.  There is no way to subtract two
digits and get 12.  So this makes the problem ridiculous.
