Let's solve the equation:

We are given:

\[ 20\% \text{ of } x = 1000 \]

We can express 20% as a fraction:

\[ \frac{20}{100} \times x = 1000 \]

This simplifies to:

\[ 0.2x = 1000 \]

Now, solve for \( x \) by dividing both sides of the equation by 0.2:

\[
x = \frac{1000}{0.2} = 5000
\]

Thus, the value of \( x \) is 5000.
