SOLUTION :-

⇒As the sum is 2

⇒The number will be equal to or less than 2.i.e. 1 or 2

⇒If we take 2 then the sum will be greater than 2

⇒We left with 1

   Reciprocal of 1 is 1 only

    So 1+1=2

  The number is 1

Answer:

Answer is 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the no. be x and 1/x

=>x+1/x=2

=>x²+1=2x

=>x²-2x+1=0

=>x²-1x-1x+1=0

=>x(x-1)-1(x-1)=0

=>(x-1)(x-1)=0

therefore x-1=0

x=1
