Q:

A number consists of 3 digits whose sum is 10. The middle digit is equal to the sum of the other two and the number will be increased by 99 if its digits are reversed. The number is :

A) 253 B) 263
C) 273 D) 283
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 253

Explanation:

Let the middle digit be x.

Then, 2x = 10 or x = 5. So, the number is either 253 or 352

Since the number increases on reversing the digits, so the hundred's digit is smaller than the unit's digit.

Hence, required number = 253.

Q:

In a two-digit number, if it is known that its unit's digit exceeds its ten's digit by 2 and that the product of the given number and the sum of its digits is equal to 144, then the number is :

A) 12 B) 24
C) 36 D) 48
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 24

Explanation:

Let the ten's digit be x.

 

Then, unit's digit = x + 2.

 

Number = 10x + (x + 2) = 11x + 2

 

Sum of digits = x + (x + 2) = 2x + 2.

 

(11x + 2) (2x + 2) = 144

=> 22x^2+26x-140=0

 

=> (x - 2)(11x + 35) = 0

 

=> x = 2

 

Hence, Required Number = 11x + 2 = 24
