To find the total number of matches Josh played, we need to divide the number of matches he won by the percentage of matches he won and then multiply by 100.

Let's calculate it step by step:

1. Let's assume the total number of matches Josh played is "x."
2. Since he won 80% of the matches, the number of matches won is 80% of "x," which can be expressed as 0.8 * x.
3. We know that he won 4 matches, so we can write the equation as 0.8 * x = 4.
4. Now, let's solve for "x." Divide both sides of the equation by 0.8: x = 4 / 0.8.
5. Simplifying the division, we have x = 5.

Therefore, Josh played a total of 5 matches.
