Solution

Say, unit digit of two-digit number =x
tens digit of two-digit number =y
So, number will be represented as =10y+x
From question,
unit digit of two-digit number, x=3

ATQ,
7 times the sum of digits of the number (10y+x)=10y+x
7(x+y)=10y+x...(1)
7(3+y)=10y+3[x=3]
21+7y=10y+3
3y=18
3y3=183
y=6

So, the number =10y+x=10×6+3=63

Therefore, the required number is 63.
