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
