Answer:
17
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing to do is plug in the numbers for the equation. Starting with:
[-20-(-3)]/(19-20)
When you answer that you simplify the answer to
(-20+3)/(19-20)
You answer what is in the parenthesis first.
(-17)/(-1)
After this step you simplify.
17.
The answer is seventeen because any number over 1 is just the number. For example, 3/1=3. The answer is positive because the negative in the numerator and denominator cancel eachother out. leaving the answer as 17.

A fraction x/y is a ratio between two numbers x and y.
The ratio is preserved if both x and y are scaled up or down by the same number n.
This means you can obtain any fraction equivalent to x/y by multiplying both x and y by n, i.e. (n*x)/(n*y).
Then we have 1/4 = (2*1)/(2*4) = 2/8, for example.
