Question

Accepted Answer

From the given data,

Let the two gits of a number be x & y

A) x + y = 15

B) $x 2 - y 2 = 45$

(x+y) (x - y) = 45

C) x - y = 3

From any 2 of the given 3 statements, we can find that 2 digit number as

2x = 18 => x = 9

=> y = 6

Hence, 2 digit number is 96.

Any one pair of A and B, B and C or C and A is sufficient to find.
