This is a 2-digit number. There is a 3 in the tens place. It is an odd number. It's digits add up to 10. He said u would subtract 10-3 to get the answer, but something doesn't seem right with his answer. It should be a 2 digit number
The child is right. The first number is 3.
Since the digits add up to 10, the number in the ones place must be 7.
37
It is a two-digit number. 10-3=7. The answer is 37.
To find the answer, let's break down the given information step by step.
We have a 2-digit number. This means that the number must be between 10 and 99.
Next, we are told that there is a 3 in the tens place. This means that the tens digit is 3, and the units digit can be any number between 0 and 9.
The number is also odd, which means that the units digit must be 1, 3, 5, 7, or 9. The only possibility that fits all the given conditions is 31.
Now, let's check whether the digits add up to 10. In this case, 3 + 1 = 4, not 10. So, the claim that the digits add up to 10 is incorrect.
Therefore, the answer should be a 2-digit number, but the information given does not lead to a number that satisfies all the given conditions.
