I have a number with two digits. I split the number into two separate digits, x & y. What multiple of x when added to a multiple of y, produces the original 2 digit number. The two digit range is from 1 to 99 and single digit numbers (1 - 9) have a leading 0. print a table of all results in this range of 01 - 99

To solve this, let’s break down the conditions:

1. Let \( x \) and \( y \) be the two digits of a two-digit number \( xy \) (where \( x \) is the tens place and \( y \) is the units place).
2. The number \( xy \) can be expressed as \( 10 \times x + y \), as each two-digit number is structured with a tens digit and a units digit.
3. We want to find integers \( a \) and \( b \) such that:
   \[
   a \times x + b \times y = 10 \times x + y
   \]
   for all two-digit numbers from 01 to 99.

Now, I’ll generate a table where, for each two-digit number \( xy \), there are values of \( a \) and \( b \) that satisfy this equation. Let's calculate this and print the table.Here is the table of results for each two-digit number \( xy \) from 01 to 99, listing values of \( x \), \( y \), and valid multipliers \( a \) and \( b \) that satisfy the equation \( a \times x + b \times y = 10 \times x + y \):

\[
\begin{array}{|c|c|c|c|c|c|}
\hline
\text{Number (xy)} & x & y & a & b & \text{Result} \\
\hline
01 & 0 & 1 & 1 & 1 & 1 \\
01 & 0 & 1 & 2 & 1 & 1 \\
01 & 0 & 1 & 3 & 1 & 1 \\
... & ... & ... & ... & ... & ... \\
99 & 9 & 9 & 6 & 5 & 99 \\
99 & 9 & 9 & 7 & 4 & 99 \\
99 & 9 & 9 & 8 & 3 & 99 \\
99 & 9 & 9 & 9 & 2 & 99 \\
99 & 9 & 9 & 10 & 1 & 99 \\
\hline
\end{array}
\]

Would you like more details or have any specific questions?

### Follow-Up Questions:
1. How does the table change if we extend \( a \) and \( b \) beyond 10?
2. Are there unique values of \( a \) and \( b \) for each number, or are there patterns?
3. Can we find an upper limit for \( a \) or \( b \) in this context?
4. What if the number range extends beyond 99?
5. How do patterns in values of \( a \) and \( b \) relate to properties of \( x \) and \( y \)?

### Tip
Always check each constraint carefully in equations with multiple variables to ensure clarity and correctness of the solution.
