Let the two-digit number A be represented as 10a+b, where a and b are the digits of A and $a
eq b.ThenumberB,obtainedbyreversingthedigitsofA,is10b + a$.
Given that A>B, we have:
A−B=(10a+b)−(10b+a)=9a−9b=9(a−b).
We are told that A−B is a multiple of 27. Therefore, 9(a−b) must be a multiple of 27.
This implies:
a−b=927=3.
Thus, a−b=3. Since a and b are digits (0 through 9), we need to find pairs (a,b) such that a−b=3 and a>b.
The possible pairs (a,b) are:
- (3,0): A=30
- (4,1): A=41
- (5,2): A=52
- (6,3): A=63
- (7,4): A=74
- (8,5): A=85
- (9,6): A=96
Thus, there are 6 such numbers A that satisfy the condition.
Therefore, the correct option is A.
