Detailed Solution

Given that a two-digit number is 4 times the sum of its digits and twice the product of the digits.
Let x be the digit in the ones place and y be the digit in the tens place.
So, the two-digit number = 10y + x.
Since, given that number = 4 times sum of its digits, we get
10y+x=4 x+y 10y+x=4x+4y 10y4y=4xx 6y=3x y= 3x 6 y= x 2 x=2y …………..(1)
Also, given number = 2 times product of its digits,
10y+x=2xy …………(2)
Divide equation (2) by xy on both the sides.
10y xy + x xy = 2xy xy 10 x + 1 y =2 ………….(3)
Put x = 2y from equation (1) in equation (3).
10 2y + 1 y =2 10 2y + 1 y × 2 2 =2 10 2y + 2 2y =2 10+2 2y =2 12 2y =2
6 y =2 6 2 =y y=3
Put y= 3 in equation (1).
x=2 3 x=6
Put x= 6 and y= 3 in equation 10y + x.
Two-digit number is,
=10×3+6 =30+6 =36 So, the two-digit number is 36.
The correct option is (4).
