The difference between a two-digit number and the number obtained by interchanging the positions of its digits is 36. What is the difference between the two digits of that number?
Answer: Option
Explanation:
Let the ten's digit be x and unit's digit be y.
Then, (10x + y) - (10y + x) = 36
9(x - y) = 36
x - y = 4.

@Sudha.
They take 10 number because of it is in ten's place. So they take 10 number :).

The explanation that all of them have done is extremely excellent. But I have a doubt Can anyone explain me as, if they ask us to find the numbers in same questions. Then what is procedure to be followed.
Thank you.

Is that method of considering 10 for the units place should be applied for all the problems?
