We calculate fractions


200x^2/1600x^2+960x/1600x^2+(-560x)/1600x^2=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator


200x^2+960x+(-560x)=0

We get rid of parentheses

200x^2+960x-560x=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

200x^2+400x=0

a = 200; b = 400; c = 0;
Δ = b2-4ac
Δ = 4002-4·200·0
Δ = 160000
The delta value is higher than zero, so the equation has two solutions
We use following formulas to calculate our solutions:
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}$

$\sqrt{\Delta}=\sqrt{160000}=400$
$x_{1}=\frac{-b-\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(400)-400}{2*200}=\frac{-800}{400}
=-2
$
$x_{2}=\frac{-b+\sqrt{\Delta}}{2a}=\frac{-(400)+400}{2*200}=\frac{0}{400}
=0
