C. The difference of their digits is 3.

A) B and C together are sufficient B) Any one pair of A and B, B and C or C and A is sufficient
C) C and A together are sufficient D) A and B together are sufficient

Explanation:

From the given data,

Let the two gits of a number be x & y

A) x + y = 15

 

B) x2 - y2 = 45

(x+y) (x - y) = 45

 

C) x - y = 3

From any 2 of the given 3 statements, we can find that 2 digit number as
