<h2>Answer:</h2>

The equation is given by:

        9-\dfrac{1}{3}x=7

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

Let the number be denoted by x.

Now, we are given a word phrase as follows:

One-third of a number less than nine is equal to seven.

Now this word phrase could be mathematically expressed as a equation by:

  one-third of x is: 1/3 x

and this number less than 9 is given by:

9-\dfrac{1}{3}x

Now, this number is equal to 7.

i.e. we finally have:

9-\dfrac{1}{3}x=7
