A VR 20 schedule means that reinforcement is delivered after an average of 20 responses. In this case, it would mean that payment would be received after every 20th sale on average. Option A is incorrect because there is no mention of the amount earned per sale, only that reinforcement is delivered after every 20 sales. Option C is incorrect because it specifies a fixed time period rather than a fixed number of sales. Option D is incorrect because it suggests a variable time period for reinforcement rather than a fixed number of sales.
