A two-digit number is 4 times the sum of its digits and twice the product of its digits. Find the number.

Let the ones and tens digits be ‘a’ and ‘b’ respectively.


10b + a = 4 ×(a + b)


6b = 3a


a = 2b


Also, 10b + a = 2ab


10b + 2b = 2 × 2b × b


4b2 = 12b


b = 3


Thus, a = 6


Number is 36.
