Let's consider the digits at ten's place as x and let the digit at unit's place be y.

Then according to first condition,

⇒ x + y = 7

⇒ x = 7 - y ……(i)

The number if digits are reversed = 10 × y + x.

Given, number with the order of the digits reversed is 28 greater than twice the unit's digits of the original number

∴ (10 × y + x) - 2y = 28

Substituting value of x from (i) we get,

⇒ 10y + 7 - y - 2y = 28

⇒ 7y = 21

⇒ y = 3.

⇒ x = 7 - y = 7 - 3 = 4.

Original number = 10 × x + y = 10 × 4 + 3 = 43.

Hence, original number = 43.
