a no. has two digits whose sum is 14. if 36 is added to the no., its digits are interchanged. find the no.
unknown values: 10*x+y
equation: (x+y)=14
equation: 36+(10*x+y)=(10*y+x)
answer: 59
The sum of the digits of a two digit number is 8. When the digits are reversed, the number is increased by 36. Find the number.
unknown values: 10*x+y
equation: x+y=8
equation: 10*x+y+36=10*y+x
answer: 26
