Answer:

10 sheets of paper are striped

Step-by-step explanation: Make a proportional relationship.

20% as a fraction is 20/100

Make 50 into a fraction using a variable. For example, x/50

Cross multiply 20 and 50. That equals 1000.

Then divide 1000 by 100 and that equals 10. So 10 sheets of paper are striped.

Hope this helps!
