Question 1205571
.
A two-digit number is such that its tens digit is greater than its unit digit by 4. 
The two-digit number is less than 4 times the product of its digits by 11. Find the number
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~



<pre>
The condition is ambiguous. 


If the digits are "a" and "b"  (where "a" is the tens' digit, "b" is the ones digit),
then the second condition can be interpreted in two different ways


    (a)  EITHER  N <  4*a*b*11

    (b)  OR      N <  4*a*b - 11.


Strictly saying, in English, only interpretation (a) corresponds to the text 
written in the post, but it leads to several possible answers.


In order interpretation (b) be valid, the wording must be changed:  

    "The two-digit number is 11 less than 4 times the product of its digits."

Since the condition is ambiguous, this post can not be considered as a Math problem.


Typical soup of words, which does not deserve serious consideration.
