The correct Answer is:
To solve the problem step by step, we will define the variables and set up equations based on the information given in the question. ### Step 1: Define the Variables Let: - \( x \) = the digit in the tens place - \( y \) = the digit in the ones place ### Step 2: Set Up the Equations From the problem, we have the following information: 1. The tens digit is bigger than the ones digit: \( x > y \) 2. The product of the digits is 27: \( x \cdot y = 27 \) 3. The difference between the two digits is 6: \( x - y = 6 \) ### Step 3: Express \( y \) in Terms of \( x \) From the equation \( x - y = 6 \), we can express \( y \) as: \[ y = x - 6 \] ### Step 4: Substitute \( y \) in the Product Equation Now, substitute \( y \) in the product equation \( x \cdot y = 27 \): \[ x \cdot (x - 6) = 27 \] ### Step 5: Expand and Rearrange the Equation Expanding the equation gives: \[ x^2 - 6x = 27 \] Now, rearranging it to form a standard quadratic equation: \[ x^2 - 6x - 27 = 0 \] ### Step 6: Factor the Quadratic Equation Next, we will factor the quadratic equation \( x^2 - 6x - 27 = 0 \). We need two numbers that multiply to \(-27\) and add to \(-6\). The numbers are \(-9\) and \(3\): \[ (x - 9)(x + 3) = 0 \] ### Step 7: Solve for \( x \) Setting each factor to zero gives us: 1. \( x - 9 = 0 \) → \( x = 9 \) 2. \( x + 3 = 0 \) → \( x = -3 \) (not valid since \( x \) must be a digit) Thus, the only valid solution for \( x \) is: \[ x = 9 \] ### Step 8: Find \( y \) Now, substitute \( x \) back into the equation for \( y \): \[ y = x - 6 = 9 - 6 = 3 \] ### Step 9: Form the Two-Digit Number The two-digit number can be formed as: \[ \text{Number} = 10x + y = 10 \cdot 9 + 3 = 90 + 3 = 93 \] ### Final Answer The two-digit number is: \[ \boxed{93} \] ---
