Data:
class = 1000 students
class = 20% or \(\frac{20}{100}\) students speak Spanish

Solving:
\(\frac{20}{100} * 1000 = \frac{20*1000}{100} = \frac{200\diagup\!\!\!\!0\diagup\!\!\!\!0}{1\diagup\!\!\!\!0\diagup\!\!\!\!0} = \boxed{\boxed{200\:students\:speak\:Spanish}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark\)
