A two number is such that the product of its digits is 6. If 9 is added to the number, the digits interchange their places.Find the number. |
Answer» ━━━━━━ ◦ ❖ ◦ ANSWER ━━━━━━ ◦ ❖ ◦Let us assume the two digit number to be , x + 10 y It is ALSO GIVEN that the product of its digits is 6 , It is also told that if 9 is added to the number, the digits interchange their places , On Solving (2) , 10x + y + 9 = 10y + x ( 10x - x ) + ( y - 10 y ) +9 = 0 9x - 9y + 9 = 0 x − y + 1 = 0 y = x + 1 Substituting the value of y in (3) in (1) x ( x + 1 ) = 6 x² + x = 6 Now Let us SOLVE the equation , x² + x = 6 x² + x - 6 Product = -6 Sum = +1
x = -3 and x = 2 Therefore x = 2 , substituting x = 2 in x + 10 y we GET , ∴ The two digit number = 10×2 + 3 = 23 Let us Verify The Answer :-23 + 9 = 32 , Here the digit got reversed so our answer is correct |
