This is a strange question. But looking at the information you gave I assume 16,000 tickets have been sold.

80% means 80 out of every 100. this is equivalent to multiplying by .8 (8/10 = 80/100)
therefore
80% of 20000 = .8 * 20000 = 16000
if there are 20000 tickets and 16000 have been sold, then 80% of the tickets have been sold.

16,000 tickets, I don't know if that's right cuz I did it in my head. I just know 75% of 20,000 would be 15,000. then 80% is 16,000, and 85% is 17,000 and 90 is 18,000 and 95% is 19,000 and 100% is 20,000.
I think I'm correct though. Just use a calculator. 20,000/100 times 80.

pretty easy
80 % /100 %= .8
multiply 20,000 tickets by .8
= 16,000 tickets

= 20,000 tickets x 80%
= 20,000 tickets x 0.80
= 16,000 tickets is SOLD

80%= .80
.8 X 20,000= 16,000

you just simply multiple 20000 By 0.8
and then you get 16000

20,000 * 0.80 = 16,000
