160
640

Answer 1

To find out how many surfboards Sunny's Surf Shop will sell this week, we first need to calculate 320 percent of the number of surfboards sold last week.

Sunny's sold 20 surfboards last week, so we calculate 320 percent of 20:

1. Convert 320 percent to a decimal: \[ 320% = \frac{320}{100} = 3.2 \]

2. Multiply the number of surfboards sold last week by this decimal: \[ 3.2 \times 20 = 64 \]

Therefore, Sunny's Surf Shop will sell 64 surfboards this week.

The correct answer is 64.
