801=20x
80 over 1 is equal to 20 over x

120=80x
1 over 20 is equal to 80 over x

20x=180
20 over x is equal to 1 over 80

201=80x

Answer 1

wrong

Answer 2

To represent the situation where an employee makes $80 at a rate of $20 per hour using fractional notation, we can set up the proportion as follows:

\[
\frac{80}{1} = \frac{20}{x}
\]

This means the correct response is:

**80 over 1 is equal to 20 over x.**
