Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number be x.
First part of the problem: a no. Added to the 2/3rd of its own.
x + (2/3)x
Second part: is equal to 55
x + (2/3)x = 55
=> (5/3)x=55
=> x= (55*3)/5
=>x=11*3
=> x=33
Hence,the original number is 33.
Rechecking through answer.
If 33 is the original number, Lets check if 22 is its 2/3rd.
33*(2/3)=>11*2=>22
Hence proved.
