"The sum of the digits of a three-digit number is 11." ---> h+t+u=11


"If the digits are reversed, the new number is 46 more than 5 times the old number" ---> 100u+10t+h=5(100h+10t+u)+46


"If the hundreds digit plus twice the tens digit is equal to the units digit" ---> h+2t=u


So solve system below to find number:
