उत्तर

Let the digit at the tens place be ‘a’ and at units place be ‘b’.

The two-digit so formed will be 10a + b.

According to the first condition, the product of its digits is 6.

⇒ a x b =6

`=> x = 6/b` ...(1)

According to second condition

10a + b + 9 = 10b + a

`⇒ 9a - 9b = 9

`=> a - b = 1`

`=> a - 6/a= 1`    From  1

`=> a^2 - a - 6 = 0`

`=> (a - 3)(a + 2) = 0`

`=> a= -3 or 2`

Since a digit cannot be negative, a = 2.

`=> b = 6/a = 6/2 = 3`

Thus, the required number = 10a + b = 10(2) + 3 = 23
