Let the 2 digit number as 
10b + a
so here the digit at tens place is b and at units plac a  
it is given that 
a + b = 9..........................(eq 1)
and 
10b + a = 10a + b + 27 
\therefore 9b – 9a = 27
\therefore 9( a - b ) = 27
\therefore a – b = 3.........................(eq 2)
now on adding eq1 and eq2
we get
a + b + a - b =3+9
\therefore 2a = 12
\therefore a = 6
 now on substituting the value of a in eq2
a – b = 3
\therefore 6 – b= 3
\therefore b = 6 – 3 = 3
therefore the number is 
10b + a = 30 + 6 = 36
if you found the solution good then please approve my answer. 
thank you
