In a two-digit number the tens’ digit is 3 more than the units’ digit. the number itself is 17 times the units’ digit. find the number.

We need to find a number, multiplied by the unit digit, the tens place is 3 more than the ones place. It can’t be too big, because the number only has two places.

17*5= 85

We used 5, and 5 is in the ones place. The tens place is 3 more than the digits place. 85 is your number.

I hope this helps!
