Answer 2

Answer:

$\frac{7}{3} \: or \: 2\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the unknown number be x

$8 \frac{2}{3} + x = 11$

$x = 11 - 8 \frac{2}{3}$

$x = 11 - \frac{3 \times 8 + 2}{3}$

$x = 11 - \frac{26}{3}$

11 is a whole number so its denominator is 1

LCM of 1 and 3 = 3

$x = \frac{11 \times 3}{1 \times 3} - \frac{26 \times 1}{3 \times 1}$

$x = \frac{33}{3} - \frac{26}{3}$

$x = \frac{7}{3} \: or \: 2\frac{1}{3}$

Therefore, the number is 7/3
