Most people use half evaporated milk and half water to substitute for whole milk in a recipe.
It does not have to be exact so that should be easy to pour into a measuring cup but if you are wanting to be exact then use 1/6 cup of each to make your 1/3 cup.

Tablespoons may be easier:
Use 2 TB + 2 teaspoons of evaporated milk and the same of water.

Evaporated milk is rather thick so it must be diluted with water to add to a recipe. Normally it is 1/2 evaporated milk and the other half is water. That makes it easy to remember for all recipes it is the same.

What are you making?

There can be challenges with substitutions like this so be careful.

For example, I would not substitute evaporated milk for whole milk in a cake recipe as it can change the consistency and the cake.

I would also think twice before making the substitution in a cream soup, although soups can be more forgiving than baked goods.
