Answer:
16,000 people
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's write a ratio
8,000:20,000
Let's write another ratio
x:40,000
We can write a percent proportion.
[tex]\frac{8,000}{20,000} =\frac{x}{40,000}[/tex]
We can see that the relationship between the denominators is multiplied by 2 so that means the relationship between 8,000 and x is x is 2 times greater than 8,000
