Number System
The difference between a two-digit number and the number obtained by interchanging its two digits is 45. The sum of the digit of the number is 9. What is the product of the two digits of the number?
Let the number be 10x + y.Therefore, x + y = 9 ..................(i)10x + y - (10y + x) = 4510x + y - 10y - x = 45Therefore, x - y = 5 ..................(ii)From (i) and (ii), x = 7, y = 2Number = 72Therefore, = x x y = 7 x 2 = 14
The least number to be added to the numbers to make them divisible by 9 is equal to the difference of the least multiple of 9 greater than the sum of the digits and sum of the digits.Sum of digits = 15.Nearest multiple of 9 greater than sum of digits = 18.Hence 3 has to be added.
