Solution:

Step 1: Find the number of baseball players

[tex] \huge{ \blue{ \frac{4}{3} = \frac{20}{n} }}[/tex]

[tex] \bold{ = \frac{3 \times 20}{4n} }[/tex]

[tex] = \frac{60}{4} [/tex]

[tex] \huge{ \bold{ \gray{ \boxed{ = \boxed{15}}}}}[/tex]

Step 2: Add the number of basketball players and the number of baseball players

[tex] \huge{ \orange{20 + 15}}[/tex]

[tex] \huge{ \bold{ \red{ \boxed{ = \boxed{35}}}}}[/tex]
