Step-by-Step Verified Solution

For odd number unit place shall be 1,3,5,71,3,5,7 or 9 .

∴\therefore x y 1, x y 3, x y 5, x y 7, x y 9 are the type of numbers. numbers.

If x y 1x \,y\, 1 then x+y=6,13,20x+y=6,13,20 ... Cases are required

i.e., 6+6+0+…=126+6+0+\ldots=12 ways

If x y 3x \, y \,3 then

x+y=4,11,18,…x+y=4,11,18, \ldots Cases are required

i.e., 4+8+1+0…=134+8+1+0 \ldots=13 ways

Similarly for x y 5x \,y \,5 , we have x+y=2,9,16,…x+y=2,9,16, \ldots

i.e., 2+9+3=142+9+3=14 ways

for x yx \,y we have

x+y=0,7,14,…x+y=0,7,14, \ldots

i.e., 0+7+5=120+7+5=12 ways

And for xx y we have

x+y=5,12,19…

i.e., 5+7+0…=125+7+0 \ldots=12 ways

∴\therefore Total 63 ways
