What will we multiply by 0.8 to make it 20?
OpenStudy (anonymous):
20/.8 = 25
OpenStudy (hba):
\[0.8 \times x=20\]
What is x?
OpenStudy (hba):
x will be your answer

Sorry this dumb thing wont let me do what im trying to do.... You would just divide each side by .8 right?
OpenStudy (hba):
Yes.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
Which give me 25.
OpenStudy (hba):
So,
1:25 as far as i guess lol.
OpenStudy (anonymous):
