Using equivalent ratios to find a whole \/

Answer:
C.
Step-by-step explanation:
So there are 20 kids with brown hair and this represents 80% of the class total.
So this means 20=.8n since we don't know the total number of kids.
20=.8n
Divide both sides by .8
25=n
So 25 is the total number of kids.
C. is the answer
You could also setup this equation given that 80% is 80/100:
[tex]\frac{20}{\text{ total }}=\frac{80}{100}
To figure out what that total is there you can divide top and bottom of the fraction on right hand side by 4 which gives you the 20 on top and the 25 on bottom.
