- 82
If the original number=10x+y, then
x+y=10 ---(i) &
10y+x=10x+y-54 or 9x-9y=54 ---(ii)
On solving (i) & (ii), x=8, y=2
So original number=10*8+2=82

- the original number is 82
let two digits is a,b
a+b=10 -----2
original number 10a+b

we get a=8 and b= 2
so original number is 82 - 9 years agoHelpfull: Yes(0) No(0)
