tens digit of n

by jain2016 » Sat Mar 26, 2016 5:17 am
If n is an integer between 100 and 900, what is the tens digit of n?

(1) If n is rounded to the nearest ten and the result is then rounded to the nearest hundred, the final value differs from the result of rounding n to the nearest hundred.

(2) The tens digit of n is half the units digit of n and is twice the hundreds digit of n.
