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?

Correct Answer: 4

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.
