To represent the statement "Twenty percent of your grade is 80 points," we can translate it into an algebraic equation.

"Twenty percent of your grade" can be expressed as \(0.20x\), where \(x\) is your grade. The equation states that this is equal to 80 points.

Therefore, the correct equation is:

\[
0.20x = 80
\]

So the correct choice is:

**A. .20x = 80**
