Let's say the ten's digit is x and the unit digit is y.
So according to the question,
y - x = 3 ......(1)
And the number is 10x + y.
If the digits are swapped, then the number will be = 10y + x
So
The difference will be = (10y + x) - (10x + y) = 9y - 9x
9y - 9x = 27
⇒ y - x = 3 ......(2)
From (1) and (2), we can't determine the value of x and y.
So the answer will be "can't determine".
∴ Option (4) is the correct answer.
