A two-digit number has digits that add to 11. Reversing its digits makes the number 27 larger. What is the original number?

Correct answer: A. 47

  • A. 47
  • B. 56
  • C. 38
  • D. 74

Explanation

The reversed number is larger, so the tens digit exceeds the units digit by 3, because 27 divided by 9 is 3. The digits must therefore be 7 and 4, making the original number 47.
