Total number of sweets = 20 x 4 = 80.
If there were 4 less children, then each will get 80/16 = 5 sweets.

Here is the solution:
----------------------------------------
Number of children = 20
Number of sweets each get = 4
Find the total number of sweets:
Total number of sweets = Number of students x Number of sweets each get
Total number of sweets = 20 x 4 = 80
Find the number of students after the reduction:
20 - 4 = 16
Find the number of sweets each child get:
Number of sweets each child get = Total number of sweets ÷ Number of children
Number of sweets each child get = 80 ÷ 16 = 5
Answer: Each child get 5 sweets
