Answer»

The sum of a two-digit number and the number obtained by REVERSING its digits is 176. If its tens place digit is GREATER than the units place digit by 2 then the number is 97.

Let the digits at ONES and tens place be x and y respectively

Then, the number obtained = 10y+x

Number obtained by reversing the digits = 10x+y

According to the question

(10y+x)+(10x+y)=176

\implies 11x+11y=176

\implies x+y=16 ...........(1)

Also given that

y=x+2

\implies x-y=-2 ............(2)

Adding EQUATION (1) and (2)

2x=14

\implies x=7

Therefore,

y=16-7=9

Therefore, the number is

10\times 9+7

or, 97

Hope this answer is helpful.
