Each digit in the two-digit number G is halved to form a new two-digit number H. Which of the following could be the sum of G and H  Answers: A) 153 B) 150 C) 137 D) 126 E) 89
let the number be x, now x is halved =&gt; x/2..the question asks what is x?   x(number) + x/2 (half of that number) = something   =&gt; 3x/2 = something   =&gt; x = 2 (something) / 3   so the answer choice must be divisible by 3   eliminate C, E right away   check the rest   D satisfies   3x/ 2 = 126   =&gt; x = 84   Verify. 84+ 42 = 126   Answer is 126
