    C) 1         

    D) 4

    E) None of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Let the number be \[10x+y.\]
    The number by interchanging the position of the digit
    \[=10y+x\]
    Now, \[(10x+y)-(10y+x)=9\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[9x-9y=9\]
    \[\Rightarrow \]   \[9\,\,(x-y)=9\]\[\Rightarrow \]\[(x-y)=1\]
