Let the two digits be a,b.
So, The two digit number will be 10a + b, and reverse of that number = 10b + a
Given, a + b =9 ——————- (i)
10a + b + 27 = 10b + a
b -a = 3 ——————– (ii)
On solving (i) and (ii), we get
b = 6
Submit this value in (ii) on we get,
a = 9 – 6 = 3
On submitting the value in above equation we get,
10a + b
= 10 * 3+ 6
=36
So, The number is 36.
