Let the digit at unit place & tens place of original number be y and x respectively. So, original number = 10 × 𝑥+ 𝑦 And, number obtained after reversing of digits = 10 × 𝑦+ 𝑥 ATQ, (10 × 𝑥+ 𝑦) −(10 × 𝑦+ 𝑥) = 27 9𝑥−9𝑦= 27 𝑥−𝑦= 3 …(i) Now, 𝑥2 −𝑦2 = 27 (𝑥+ 𝑦)(𝑥−𝑦) = 27 …(ii) On solving (i) & (ii), we get: 𝑥+ 𝑦= 9 …(iii) On solving (i) & (iii), we get: 𝑥= 6, 𝑦= 3 So, original number = 10 × 𝑥+ 𝑦 = 63
