Solution

Let units place digit be x and tens place digit be y.
Original number = 10y + x
Number obtained on interchanging the digits = 10x +y
By given conditond,
x+y = 11
10x +y = 10y +x - 63
9y - 9x = 63
y - x = 7
Solving the linear equations we get,
y=9 and x=2

Original number is 92 i.e option B.
