The husband and wife toy makers named their son Ken and their daughter Barbie. If 19,125 people in the couple's hometown-exactly 75% of the population-think the couple is crazy, what is the total population of the town?​

Divide the known population by the percentage:

19,125 / 75%

19,125/0.75 = 25,500

Total population = 25,500
