Answer:

The Original number is 52

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two digits be x and y

The , The sum of the two Digits is 7

So

x +y = 7

x = 7-y-------------------------------(1)

The original number is
x * 10 +y---------------(2)

Now if we interchange the digits

The interchanged number will be
y * 10 + x---------(3)

Interchanged = Original – 27


y * 10 + x = x * 10 + y -27


10y + x =10x + y -27

Group the like terms


10y -y =10x -x -27


9y = 9x -27--------------------------(4)

Substituting (1) in(4)


9y = 9(7-y) -27


9y = 63 -9y -27


9y+9y = 63-27


18 y = 36


y =(36)/(18)

y = 2-------------------------------------(5)

Substituting (5) in(1)

x = 7 -y

x =7-2

x =5

Now From eq(1)

The original number will be

=10x +y

= 10(5) +2

= 50 +2

=52
