Let the digit in the unit's plce be `a-d,` digit in the ten's place be a and the digit in the hundred's place be `a+d.`
Sum of digits `=a-d+a+a+d=15" " [" Given "]`
`implies 3a= 15`
`therefore a=5 " " "....(i)"` `therefore` Original number `=(a-d)+10a+100(a+d)`
`=111a-99d=555+99d`
and number formed by reversing the digits
`(a+d)+10a+100(a-d)`
`=111a-99d=555+99d`
Given, `(555+99d)-(555-99d)=594 implies 198d=594`
`therefore " "d=3`
Hence, original number `=555+99xx3=852`
