Let the first digit in the original number be A. Let the second digit in the original number be B. 1.A%2BB=12 The number can be represented as 10%2AA%2BB The number with digits transposed would be 10%2AB%2BA Putting all those together would yield, 10%2AB%2BA=10%2AA%2BB%2B54 -9A%2B9B=54 2.-A%2BB=6 Add eq.1 and eq.2 and solve for B. A%2BB-A%2BB=12%2B6 2B=18 B=9 From 1, A%2BB=12 A%2B9=12 A=3 Original number is 39. Transposed number is 93.
