Answer:  There are "80" words in the list.

Explanation:
______________________________________
(1/4) x = 20 ;  solve for "x" ;

Multiply each side of the equation by "4" ; to isolate "x" on ONE SIDE of the equation; and to solve for "x"; 

  =====>  4 * { (1/4) x } = 20 *4 ; 

                   ===>  x = 80 .
