    Let ten's place digit of a two digit number is x and unit's place digit is y.

    So, two digit number = 10 x + y

    According to condition 1

    10x + y = 8 (x + y) - 5

    => 2x - 7y = - 5 ... (1)

    According to condition 2

    10x + y = 16 (x - y) + 3

    => 6x - 17y = - 3 ... (2)

    On solving equation (1) and (2) we get

    x = 8 and y = 3

    So, two digit number is 10x + y = 10 * 8 + 3 = 83.
