Well, let's paint a happy little picture here. If 16 is 80% of a number, we can find the whole number by dividing 16 by 0.80 (which is the same as 80%). So, 16 ÷ 0.80 equals 20. So, the number we're looking for is 20. Happy painting!

To find the number that 16 is 80% of, you can set up the equation: 0.80x = 16. To solve for x, you would divide both sides by 0.80, which gives you x = 20. Therefore, 16 is 80% of 20.

Well, honey, if 16 is 80% of a number, then that number is 20. You can thank good ol' math for that one. Now go ahead and show off your newfound knowledge at the next cocktail party.
