Question 28

The sum of a two digit number and the number obtained by reversing the digits is 66. If the digits of the number differ by 2, find the number. How many such numbers are there?

Explanation:

$\begin{aligned} L e t^{'} s c o n s i d e r t h e u n i t d i g i t b e a a n d t e n d i g i t b e b \\ s o, O r i g i n a l n u m b e r i s a + 10 b - - - (1) w h e r e a \neq b \\ B y r e v e r s i n g t h e d i g i t w e g e t 10 b + a - - - - (2) \\ A c c o r d i n g t o t h e q u e s t i o n, w e g e t \\ (a + 10 b) + (10 b + a) = 66 \\ \Rightarrow 11 a + 11 b = 66 \\ o r a + b = 6 - - (3) \\ s i n c e g i v e n t h a t d i g i t o f t h e n u m b e r d i f f e r 2 \\ ∴ a - b = 2 - - - (4) \\ b y a d d i n g e q u a t i o n s 2 a n d 3 w e g e t \\ (a - b) + (a + b) = 2 + 6 \\ 2 a = 8 \\ ∴ a = 4 \\ n o w p u t a v a l u e i n e q (3) w e g e t b = 2 \\ t h e n u m b e r i s g i v e n i s b y p u t t i n g v a l u e s (a) a n d (b) i n e q (3) (4 + 10 \times 2) = 24 \\ T h i s i s c a s e 1 o r o t h e r c a s e w o u l d b e 42 \\ H e n c e t h e r e a r e 2 s u c h n u m b e r \end{aligned}$
