Answer» For unit’s place, We have two conditions, when 7 + B ≤ 9 and 7 + B > 9 For 7 + B ≤ 9 7 + B = A ∴ A – B = 7 …(1) In ten’ place, B + A = 8 …(2) Solving 1 and 2 simultaneously, 2A = 15 which means A = 7.5 which is not possible Hence, our condition 7 + B ≤ 9 is wrong. ∴ 7 + B > 9 is correct condition Hence, carrying one in ten’s place and subtracting 10 from unit’s place, 7 + B – 10 = A ∴ B – A = 3 … (3) For ten’s place, B + A + 1 = 8 ∴ B + A =7 …(4) Solving 3 and 4 simultaneously, 2B = 10 ∴ B = 5 and A = 2 |
