    15 painters

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let the number of painters be A

    To get the number of painters, it'll be 80% of A = 12

    That's

    80% / 100% x A = 12

    0.8 x A = 12

    Divide both sides by 0.8

    A = 12/0.8

    A = 15

    A total of 15 painters worked on the job
