Which of those numbers meet the criteria?
Let's assume the tens digit is 'x' and the units digit is 'y'.
From the given information, we can set up two equations based on the sum and difference of the digits:
1. Equation based on the sum of the digits:
x + y = 8
2. Equation based on the difference of the digits:
x - y = 6
Now, we can solve the equations simultaneously to find the values of x and y.
Adding these two equations together eliminates the "y" terms:
(x + y) + (x - y) = 8 + 6
2x = 14
x = 7
Substituting the value of x into one of the equations:
7 + y = 8
y = 1
So, the tens digit (x) is 7, and the units digit (y) is 1. Hence, the number is 71.
