The sum of the digits of a two digit number is 12. The value of the numberis equal to 11 times the tens digit. What is the product of its digits?

Question

anonymous · Answer

let the number be xy

sum of digits = 12
therefore x+y = 12

value of the number= 10*(number in the tens place) + 1*(number in the units place)
= 10x+y, which is given to be 11 times the tens digits. 

Therefore, 10x + y = 11x

so you need to solve the two equations and find out x and y

and finally just multiply x*y
