Answer:

78

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two-digit number have the digits a and b.

It mentions that they add up to 15.

Then the possible numbers are :

  • 69 (6 + 9 = 15)
  • 78 (7 + 8 = 15)

=============================================================

Let's reverse the numbers :

69

  • 69 ⇔ 96
  • 96 - 69 = 27
  • Not the right number ×

78

  • 78 ⇔ 87
  • 87 - 78 = 9
  • This is correct √

=============================================================

Solution :

Hence, the number needed is 78

Step-by-step explanation:

no. 10y+x

no. formed by reversing the digits = 10x+ y

ATQ

EQ(1)= x+y=15

EQ (2)=10x+y+9=10y +x ( Digits are reversed)

9x-9y=-9

x-y=-1

x+y=15 ( given)

2x=14,x=7

and y=15–7=8

thus the number=78
