Solution

Total character in 20 sheets of 55 lines each = 20 * 55 * 65

Let the number of sheets after reductio = N

According to the question: 

20 * 55 * 65 = N * 65 * 70

N = $$\frac{110}{7} = 15.7 pages = 16 pages$$

Reduction in number of sheets = 20 - 16 = 4 pages

Required percent = $$\frac{4}{20} * 100 = 20$$%
