Hi Bobbym, it worked! Just being scared of the negative number:
10a + b = 12a + 12b
-2a = 11b
a=11; b=-2
10(11) - 2 = 108
1+0+8 = 9 x 12 = 108
Thank you so much for the enlightenment. You are so wonderful. God bless.
P.S. Hope you won't get fed up with other help I would need.

Why 10a + 1b is used, why not 20a + 4b instead?

What 2 digit number has a value that is 12 (or more or 100+) times the sum of its digits?
What about 3 digit number has a value that is 12 (or more or 100+) times the sum of its digits?
