Answer: 16

Explanation:

We can solve this by using the equation: 4/5 x 20 = y

(y is the answer)

Now we can solve it. You can just solve 4/5 x 20, or if you like using decimals you can change it to 0.8 x 20, becaues 4/5 is equivalent to 0.8.

0.8 x 20 = 16.

Therefore, out of the 20 cookies, 16 are chocolate chip.
