=======================================

Work Shown:

$(w)/(4) - 16 = 20\\\\(w)/(4) = 20+16\\\\(w)/(4) = 36\\\\w = 4*36\\\\\boldsymbol{w = 144}\\\\$

Check:

$(w)/(4) - 16 = 20\\\\(144)/(4) - 16 = 20\\\\36 - 16 = 20\\\\20 = 20\\\\$

We end up with the same thing on both sides which confirms the answer is correct.
