in these exact orders

(a) MnO4- + H+ + SO3 2-

(b) MnO4- + SO3 2- + H+

all reactions are unbalanced
1.
MnO4- + H+ + SO3 2- = Mn 2+ + SO4 2- + H2O

2.
a) MnO4-  + SO3 2- = MnO2 + SO4 2- + OH-
after addition of acid (when sufficient amount of SO3 2- is present)
b) MnO2 + SO3 2- + OH- + H+ = Mn2+ SO4 2- + H2O
After addition of balanced 2a and 2b you should get balanced 1
