    Answer : Option A

    Explanation :

    Let the tens and units digit be x and y respectively.

     

     I. (10x + y) - (10y + x)        x - y = 3.

     

     II. x - y = 3.

     

    III. x - y = 3.

     

    Thus, even all the given three statements together do not give the answer.

     

     Correct answer is (E).
