The original number is 38
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the sum of the digits of a 2 digit number is 11.
If the digits are reversed, the number formed is 45 more than the original number.
Let x and y be the two numbers and
Let the original number be
Let the reversed number be
We need to determine the original number.
Original number:
We need to determine the original number
Thus, we have,
-----(1)
--------(2)
Solving the equation (2), we get,
--------(3)
Adding the equations (1) and (3), we get,
Thus, the value of x is 3
Substituting
in equation (1), we get,
Thus, the value of y is 8.
The equation of the original number is
Substituting the value of x and y, we get,
Original number =
Thus, the original number is 38.
