5/20 - 8/20 = -3/20

I was beaten to it by someone unwittingly possibly helping the questioner cheat. I had submitted:
Solve by converting the two fractions to share their lowest common denominator, then subtract the numerators.
HINT: this particular question has a negative answer!
If you're wondering why I've told you how to do it, not the answer, I suspect it's a homework question that lets you practice the technique, so you asking us to complete it for you is self-defeating for you.
