  1. Solution :-
    Let the tens place digit be x.
    And the units place digit be y.
    According to the Question,
    ⇒ xy = 18
    ⇒ y = 18/x …..(i)
    And, (10x + y) – 63 = 10y + x
    ⇒ 9x – 9y = 63
    ⇒ x – y = 7 …. (ii)
    Putting y’s value in Eq (ii), we get
    ⇒ x – 18/x = 7
    ⇒ x² – 18 = 7x
    ⇒ x² – 7x – 18 = 0
    ⇒ x² – 9x + 2x – 18 = 0
    ⇒x(x – 9) + 2(x – 9) = 0
    ⇒ (x – 9) (x + 2) = 0
    ⇒ x – 9 = 0 or x + 2 = 0
    ⇒ x = 9, – 2 (As x can’t be negative)
    ⇒ x = 9
    Putting x’s value in Eq (i), we get
    ⇒ xy = 18
    ⇒ 9y = 18
    ⇒ y = 18/9
    ⇒ y = 2
    Number = 92
    Hence, the required number is 92
