Respuesta :

A is the correct answer.

Lets break it down:

A is correct because 40% is 40/100 (40% of 100) and you need to multiply it by 20 because there are 20 people in the group.

Hope this helps!
The answer is A because 40/100 is equivalent to 40% and since there is 20 kids in the club 40/100 times 20 will give you the right answer
