The digits aa and bb make the repeating decimals 0.ab‾=0.ababab…0.\overline{ab} = 0.ababab\ldots and 0.ba‾=0.bababa…0.\overline{ba} = 0.bababa\ldots. Their sum is 43\dfrac{4}{3} and their difference 0.ab‾−0.ba‾0.\overline{ab} - 0.\overline{ba} is 211\dfrac{2}{11}. What is the two-digit number ab‾\overline{ab} (that is, 10a+b10a + b)?
