how many integers k greater than 100 and less than 1100 are there such that if the hundreds and the unit digits of k are reversed , the resulting integer is k + 99 ? | "not sure if this is the shortest . . but this is how i did this there are 9 sets of integers with hundreds and units digits exchanged that satisfies k + 99 . 1 . 102 | 201 ( satisfies k + 99 , where k = 102 ) 2 . 203 | 302 ( satisfies k + 99 , where k = 203 ) 3 . . . . 4 . . . . 5 . . . . 6 . . . . 7 . 708 | 807 8 . 8... | a ) 50 , b ) 60 , c ) 70 , d ) 80 , e ) 90 | e | multiply(const_10, subtract(const_10, const_2)) | subtract(const_10,const_2)|multiply(#0,const_10)| | general |
