Website copied to wordpress.com shouldn’t exist
-
Seems i have my website copied on wordpress.com as well as wordpress.org
I don’t have a site with WordPress.com yet

I don’t see any WordPress.com sites under your account here.
What is the URL of the site with the problem?

I’m able to sign into the wordpress app and see my posts there. Even my pages and able to edit them. So I’m not sure how that is happening when my host only allows wordpress.org.

Your site is not hosted with WordPress.com. It is a site using the open-source WordPress software (from WordPress.org) but hosted with Hostgator.
To clear up any confusion, WordPress.com and WordPress.org are two different entities: https://wordpress.com/support/com-vs-org/
The good news to answer your question though is the WordPress app allows you to work with both WordPress.com and WordPress.org sites.
So, in this case, you’re simply working with your WordPress.org site in the WordPress app. There is no WordPress.com copy of the site. :)

Ok thank you so much. That makes sense. What does it mean when you say the site is working on an open source-network network? I have a different login on wordpress.org and one for wordpress.com. should I disable that then?

WordPress.org is open source software, which is what your site is using.
If you want to, you can safely close your WordPress.com account without harming your site: https://wordpress.com/support/close-account/
