The sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 12. The number formed by reversing the digits is 54 more than the original number. What is the original number?

39

Step-by-step explanation:

let the 2 digit number be ab = 10a + b ( considering place value )

The reversed  2 digit number is ba = 10b + a

The sum of the 2 digit number is

a + b = 12 ( subtract b from both sides )

a = 12 - b → (1)

Expressing as an equation

ba = ab + 54 , that is

10b + a = 10a + b + 54

Substitute a = 12 - b into the equation

10b + 12 - b = 10(12 - b) + b + 54 , simplify both sides

9b + 12 = 120 - 10b + b + 54

9b + 12 = - 9b + 174 ( add 9b to both sides )

18b + 12 = 174 ( subtract 12 from both sides )

18b = 162 ( divide both sides by 18 )

b = 9

Substitute b = 9 into (1)

a = 12 - 9 = 3

Thus

the original 2 digit number = ab = 39

The reversed 2 digit number = ba = 93

which is 54 more than the original number
