Number System
The difference between a two-digit number and the number obtained after interchanging its two digits is 36. The sum of the two digits of the number is 12. Find the lowest such possible number.
Let the digits be x and yTherefore, x + y = 12 .............(1)(10y + x) - (10x + y) Therefore, y - x = 4............. (2)Solving (1) and (2), y = 8 Therefore, x = 4There are two possible numbers 48 and 84. So the lowest no. is 48.
Let the ten's digit be x and unit's digit be y. Then, number 10x + y.Number obtained by interchanging the digits = 10y + x.(10x + y) + (10y + x) = 11(x + y)which is divisible by 11.
