Detailed Solution

Given rational numbers are

− 16 20, 20 − 25

.
Multiplying the numerator and denominator of

− 16 20

− 25

− 16 20 × − 25 − 25 = 400 − 500

Multiplying the numerator and denominator of

20 − 25

by 20,

20 − 25 × 2020 = 400 − 500

The numerator and denominator of the above rational numbers are equal.
Therefore, the following rational numbers

− 16 20, 20 − 25

are equal.
Thus, the given statement is true.
Hence, option (1) is correct.
