Question
$$-\frac{\frac{8}{20}}{16}-11 = 0$$
Answer
This equation has no solution.
Explanation
$$ \begin{aligned} -\frac{\frac{8}{20}}{16}-11 &= 0&& \text{multiply ALL terms by } \color{blue}{ 80 }. \\[1 em]-80 \cdot \frac{\frac{8}{20}}{16}-80\cdot11 &= 80\cdot0&& \text{cancel out the denominators} \\[1 em]-2-880 &= 0&& \text{simplify left side} \\[1 em]-882 &= 0&& \\[1 em] \end{aligned} $$
Since the statement $ \color{red}{ -882 = 0 } $ is FALSE, we conclude that the equation has no solution.
