Answer: 194.
Explanation:
From the second statement which is, “My hundreds digit is eight less than my tens digit” we can assume that the numbers are 1 and 9 as the 1st digit cannot be 0 as then it would be a 2-digit-number. So the first 2 digits are 1 & 9.
From the first statement, which is, “My tens digit is five more than my unit digit.” we can say the unit digit is 9 – 5 = 4
So the digit in units place is 4.
Therefore, putting this all together we get the 3-digit-number to be 194.
