I am thinking of a two digit number.it is smaller then 5 tens but greater then 4 tens. its ones digit is 3 more than its tens digit.what number am i thinking of?

Respuesta :

The two digit number larger than 40 and lesser than 50, and the difference between the ones and tens digits gives the two digit number as 41

How can the two digit number be found?

Let XY represent the two digit number;

From the question, we have the following inequalities and equations;

  • 40 < XY < 50

  • X = Y + 3

Therefore;

  • 4 ≤ X < 5

  • Y > 0

Which gives;

  • 4 ≤ Y + 3

  • 4 - 3 = 1 ≤ Y

Y = 1

X = 4

Therefore;

  • XY = 41

The two digit number, XY = 41
