let the tens digit of the original be x
so original number was 10x+4
number reversed = 40+x
10x+4 = 40+x + 45
9x = 81
x = 9
the old was 94, the new one is 49
Their sum = 143
so original number was 10x+4
number reversed = 40+x
10x+4 = 40+x + 45
9x = 81
x = 9
the old was 94, the new one is 49
Their sum = 143
