A number consists of 3 digits whose sum is 10. The middle digit is equal to the sum of the other two and the number will be increased by 99 if its digits are reversed. The number is	Pick one
A) 145	B) 185	C) 253	D) 370	E) None
Solution   Let the number be x.   Then 2x = 10 or x = 5. So, the number is either 253 or 352. Since the number increases on reversing the digits, so the hundred's digit is smaller than the units digit.   Hence, required number = 253.   Answer 253
