Answer:
There are 25 students in Hannah's class.
Step-by-step explanation:
If 20 students in Hannah's class is 80% of the total amount of students, we can use a variable to figure out the total amount of students.
Let's say x is the total amount of students. We can use this equation to solve the problem:
This is saying 20 equals 80% (.8 when you move the decimal 2 times) of x, or the total amount of students. Let's solve.
20 = .8x
Divide by .8
25 = x
There are 25 students in Hannah's class.
