Let,

The units digit = x

The tens digit = 7 - x

Orignal Number :

⇒ 10 (7 - x) + x

⇒ 70 - 10x + x

⇒ 70 - 9x

Digit of the number reversing :

⇒ 10x + (7 - x)

⇒ 10x - x + 7

⇒ 9x + 7

According to the question:

The number with reversed digits increases

The original number by 9 :

So,

⇒ (70 - 9x) + 9 = (9x + 7)

⇒ 70 + 9 - 9x = 9x + 7

⇒ 79 - 9x = 9x + 7

⇒ 79 - 7 = 9x + 9x

⇒ 72 = 18x

⇒ 18x = 72

⇒ x = 72 / 18

⇒ x = 4

The unit digit = 4

The tens digit = 7 - x

⇒ 7 - 4

⇒ 3

The tens digit = 3

Therefore,

The number is  34
