2-Digit Number Patterns Explained

1) Choose any two-digit number and add the sum of its digits. Subtract this sum from the original number. 2) Repeating this process on different two-digit numbers reveals that the answers are always multiples of 9. 3) Algebraically, any two-digit number can be expressed as 10a + b, where a is the tens digit and b is the ones digit. The sum of the digits is a + b. Subtracting this sum from the original number leaves a result that is always a multiple of 9.
