Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Three Digit Number.

***

Second digit = Last digit

*xx

I multiplied 45 from numbers 1-23, with 22 being the maximum # to multiply to get a 3 digit number that is divisible by 45, and 3 being the minimum # to multiply to get a 3 digit number that is divisible by 45.

Now to check which number it is.

When you multiply 45 by 17, you get 765. This number is supposed to be 1 less than the riddle's number. It also has to have the last 2 digits be the same.

So, lets add one to 765 to see if we solved the riddle.

765 + 1 = 766

766 is the answer!
