Answer:Let the two digits of the number be `x` and `y`. Then the number can be written as `xy`, and the number obtained by interchanging the positions of its digits can be written as `yx`. Given that (`xy` - `yx`) = 36, therefore `xy - yx = 36` `10x - 10y = 36` `10x - 10y - 36 = 0` `10x - 46 = 10y` `10x = 10y + 46` `x = (10y + 46) / 10` `x = y + 4.6` Substituting from above equation, `10y + 46 = 10(y + 4.6)` `10y + 46 = 10y + 46` Therefore, `x=y+4.6` Therefore, the difference between the two digits of the number is 4.6.
