In such questions the main thing needed to solve is your reasoning and the concept of how better you understand the question.
Begin with assuming the number to be found as a variable, say x.
According to question,
When 2 is subtracted with 1/5th of a number, we get 1 as a result.
Hence,
2 - 1/5 of x = 1
2 - x/5 = 1
- x/5 = 1 - 2
- x/5 = - 1
x/5 = 1
x = 5 * 1
x = 5
The number is 5.
