-==Solution 1==
-We solve everything in terms of <math>a</math>. <math>b = 20 - a</math> and <math>c = 2022 - a</math>. Therefore, <math>20-a + 2022-a = 22</math>. Solving for <math>a</math>, we get that <math>a</math> = 1010. Since <math>c = 2022-a, c = 1012</math>. Since <math>b = 20-a, b = -990</math>. Computing <math>\frac {1010-(-990)}{1012-1010}</math> gives us the answer of <math>\boxed {1000}</math>.
