The missing number is 16.

To solve for the missing number, we can use the quotient rule of exponents which states that when dividing two numbers with the same base, you subtract the exponents.

Therefore, we have:

x^3 / x^? = x^19

Using the quotient rule, we subtract the exponent of x on the denominator from the exponent on the numerator:

3 - ? = 19

Simplifying the left side of the equation, we have:

-? = 16

To find the value of ?, we can multiply both sides of the equation by -1:

?- = -16

Therefore, the missing number is 16.
