Answer:

20

Step-by-step explanation:

This reads mathematically exactly how it is stated in words.  The word "is" means =, the word "of" means multiply, and "what number" is x.  Therefore, the equation from that looks like this:  16 = .80x.  Don't forget that you cannot use a percent in an equation without first changing it to its decimal equivalency.  Solve that for x by dividing both sides by .80 to get that x = 20
