  1. Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x be tens digit and y be one’s digit

    (x-2)(y+1) = xy

    = xy+x-2y-2 = xy

    = x-2y= 2 (i)

    (x+3)(y-1) = xy

    = xy-x+3y-3 = xy

    = -x+3y= 3 (ii)

    By elimination addition method

    -x+3y= 3 + x-2y= 2

    = y=5

    Substitute y=5 in (i)

    x= 12

    Total no of students = xy

    = 12 x 5 = 60 students
