The difference of the two digit number itself and it's reversal is always divisible by 9.
And the resulting number = 9(larger digit- smaller digit)
For example, difference between 18 and 81 = 9(8-1)=63.


The summation of the two digit number itself and it's reversal is always divisible by 11. And the resulting number = 11(larger digit+smaller digit)
For example, difference between 18 and 81 = 11(8+1)=99.

The difference between a two-digit number and the number obtained by revers-ing its digits is 5 times the sum of the digits of either number. What is the sum of the two digit number and its reverse?

(A) 44

(B) 55

(C) 77

(D) 99

(E) 110

given
10a+b-10b-a= 5a+5b
we get
2a=7b
a= 7 ; b = 2
so sum = 99
IMO D

9(a-b)= 5(a+b)
2a = 7b
Hence, a=7 and b=2

Sum of digits = 9.
Answer = 99
