Given, the difference between two digits is 6 and the ten's digit is bigger than the unit's digit.
So, let the unit's digit be x and ten's digit be (x + 6).
From the given condition, we have:
x(x + 6) = 27
x2 + 6x − 27 = 0
x2 + 9x − 3x − 27 = 0
x(x + 9) − 3(x + 9) = 0
(x + 9) (x − 3) = 0
x = −9, 3
Since, the digits of a number cannot be negative. So, x = 3.
Unit's digit = 3
Ten's digit = 9
Thus, the number is 93.
