\(\text{Wind Chill} = \text{Temperature} \times \frac{4}{25}\)

 

\(\text{Wind Chill} = 20 \times \frac{4}{25}\)

 

\(\text{Wind Chill} = \frac{80}{25}\)

 

\(\text{Wind Chill} = 3\frac{1}{5}\)

I believe this is simply a substitution question; the formula may just be something to plug values into.
