Oh, hello there!

This is a bit embarrassing but I need to ask for your help. I slipped on a banana peel and I have no idea what number I am or what friendly tens I come between.

You want to know what I remember about myself? Well, I know that I have two digits. Wait, I hope you know what a digit is or else you can't really help me...

Oh, good! You know what a digit is, phew!

I think that if you call out some friendly tens numbers that we might be able to find out what number I am.

Hmm, you think I might be a number between 10 and 20?

I don't think I am. I remember my friend 17 always said that I was too big to stay in their group.

Here's what we know so far: I am not a number between 10and 20. That means I am a number greater than 20. Let's keep investigating!!

So this time you think I might be a number between 80 and 90?

I kind of remember my friend 84 would always say I was too small to join their group. I don't think I am a number between these two friendly tens.

Here's what we know so far:

I am not a number between 80 and 90. This means I am smaller than 80 but greater than 20 . That's somewhat helpful. Let's keep investigating!!

So this time you think I might be a number between 30 and 40?

I kind of remember that my friend 38 would say that I was three tens greater than their group. I wonder what three tens greater than 38 is?
