Answer:


\huge\boxed{\sf x = (2)/(3)}

Explanation:

Let the number be x

Given condition:


\displaystyle 1 (1)/(3) +x=2\\\\Subtract\ 1(1)/(3) \ to \ both \ sides\\\\x = 2-1(1)/(3) \\\\x = (2 * 3)/(1 * 3) - (4)/(3) \\\\x = (6)/(3) - (4)/(3) \\\\x=(6-4)/(3) \\\\\boxed{x = (2)/(3)} \\\\\rule[225]{225}{2}
