windows * 20 percent = 6

windows * .2 = 6

divide each side by .2

windows = 6/ .2

window = 30 windows




6 windows         20

----------------  = ------------

total windows    100


cross products

6 * 100 = 20 * total windows

600 = 20 * total windows

divide each side by 20

600/20 = total windows

30 = total windows
