Detailed Solution

It is given that sum of the digits of a two-digit number is 9.
Let the unit place digit of two numbers is x.
Hence, tens place digit =9-x.
Original number =x+10(9-x).
New digit number (Interchanging the digits) = 10x+(9-x).
New number = original number +27.
Substitute the value of the new digit number and the original number in equation ,
10x+(9x)=10(9x)+x+27  
Solve the bracket,
10x+9x=9010x+x+27 9x+9=1179x  
Transpose (-9x) to the left-hand side and 9 to the right-hand side.
  9x+9x=1179 18x=108 x= 108 18 x=6  
The unit digit is 6.
The required number will be,
=6+3×10 =6+30 =36  
The two-digit number is 36.
Correct option is 1.
