Answer:

33 1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number be a .

Of means multiplication.

So ,

3/5 x a = 20

3a/5 = 20

Cross multiply

3a = 20 x 5

3a = 100

Divide both sides by 3

3a/3 = 100/3

a = 33 1/3

The number is 33 1/3 .

If you multiply 3/5 by 33 1/3 , the answer will be equal to 20.
