    Question

    The sum of a two-digit number and the number obtained by reversing the digits is 99. If the digits of the number differ by 7, then the two-digit number can be:

    A.

    29

    B.

    92

    C.

    19

    D.

    81

    Correct option is D

    Given:
    The sum of the two-digit number and the number obtained by reversing the digits is 99.
    The digits of the number differ by 7

    Solution: 

    Let the unit digit be x and tens digit be y 

    y - x = 7 ........(1)

    From the first condition:

    10y + x + (10x + y) = 99 

    11y + 11x = 99

    y + x = 9 ..........(2) 

    Subtracting (1) from (2) 

    y + x -(y-x) = 9 - 7 

    2x = 2 

    x = 1 

    then y = 8 

    Thus the number be 81
