Which of the options is a two-digit number, which has a unit's digit that exceeds its ten's digit by 6 and the product of the given number and the sum of its digits is equal to 136.
Options:
(A) 82
(B) 93
(C) 39
(D) 28
(E) 17 Hmmm, my stream of consciousness:
Using the elimination method the option that fits this description is 17
7-1 = 3 (unit's digit that exceeds its ten's digit by 3)
17*8 = 136 (the product of the given number and the sum of its digits is equal to 175) So, the answer is (E).
