Final answer:

12 people picked chocolate cake.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of people who picked chocolate cake, we need to calculate 60% of the total number of people at the party. There were 20 people at the party, so we multiply 20 by 60% (0.60). 20 x 0.60 = 12. Therefore, 12 people picked chocolate cake.
