The tens digits of a certain two-digit number is 1/3 of the units digit. When the digits are reversed, the new number exceed twice the original number by 2 more than the sum of the digits. Find the original number.

The orginal number is 26.

Step-by-step explanation:

So the units digit can be 3 6 or 9

The tens digit can be 1 2 or 3

So the original number can be 13

31 = 2*13+ (1+3) + 2

31 =? 26 + 4 + 2    

This doesn't work. The right side is 32

26

62 = 2*26 + 8 + 2

62 = 52 + 8 + 2

This is your answer.

3 and 9 won't work because 39 is odd and so is 93. The result has to be even.
