    A number, half of that number, and one-third of that number are added.

    This statement can be expressed as:

    x + (1/2) x + (1/3) x

    The total is 22

    x + (1/2) x + (1/3) x = 22

    So let's look for x

    x + (1/2) x + (1/3) x = 22

    (6x + 3x + 2x) / 6 = 22

    11x = 132

    x = 12

    So the original number is 12.
