Answer:

100 tickets

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability of winning = amount of tickets purchased/Total number of tickets

20% = 20/total number of tickets

20/100 = 20/total number of tickets

cross multiply

20 * total number of tickets = 20 * 100

20 *  total number of tickets = 100

total number of tickets sold = 100 tickets
