Let B = X

⇒ Runs scored by

Let the ten's digits be x.

Then, the unit's digit is 2x - 1.

Original number = 10x + 2x - 1

= 12x - 1

New number = 10(2x - 1) + x

= 20x - 10 + x

= 21x - 10

According to the question,

(21x - 10) - (12x - 1) = (12x - 1) - 20

⇒ 9x - 9 = 12x - 21

⇒ 3x = 12

⇒ x = 4

Original number = 12x - 1

= 12 × 4 - 1

= 47

(1) Z faces the south direction and only two people sit to his left.
