But how is this possible? A is an imaginary number since the denominator is negative.

both numerator and denominator are positive.. how did you get negative?
U did sth wrong anything squared under a root equal its absolute not its positive solution

And loga to x equal l divided bu logx to a that is the key
why not is it 1? If you take A=log2016/log2015 and then since loga/logb=log(a-b) so you get log(2016-2015)=log1=0 and then 2015^(A=0)=1. Is this wrong?

Log10(2016) / log10(2015) does not equal log10(2016-2015)
log10(2016)-log10(2015)=log10(2016/2015 Is what you're thinking of.
A = lo g 2 0 1 6 2 0 1 5 lo g 2 0 1 5 2 0 1 6
lo g 2 0 1 6 2 0 1 5 = lo g 2 0 1 5 2 0 1 6 lo g 2 0 1 5 2 0 1 5 = lo g 2 0 1 5 2 0 1 6 1
A = lo g 2 0 1 5 2 0 1 6 1 lo g 2 0 1 5 2 0 1 6
A = lo g 2 0 1 5 2 0 1 6 ⋅ lo g 2 0 1 5 2 0 1 6 = ( lo g 2 0 1 5 2 0 1 6 ) 2
A = lo g 2 0 1 5 2 0 1 6
2 0 1 5 A = 2 0 1 5 lo g 2 0 1 5 2 0 1 6 = 2 0 1 6
The key to the solution lies in the fact that log with base b and argument a is equal to 1/(log base a argument b). This is a direct result of the base change formula. Sorry I don't know how to use Latex.
The answer is simple when we change the base lets say to a common base b
We get log {a} 2016/log {a}2016
This says A=log_{2015}2016
So we know x^log_{x}y = y it's prove is easy too

We have, lo g 2 0 1 6 2 0 1 5 lo g 2 0 1 5 2 0 1 6 = lo g 2 0 1 6 lo g 2 0 1 5 lo g 2 0 1 5 lo g 2 0 1 6 = ( lo g 2 0 1 5 ) 2 ( lo g 2 0 1 6 ) 2 = lo g 2 0 1 5 lo g 2 0 1 6 ∴ A = lo g 2 0 1 5 2 0 1 6 ⟹ 2 0 1 5 A = 2 0 1 5 lo g 2 0 1 5 2 0 1 6 = 2 0 1 6 .
Note : lo g a b = lo g a lo g b [ Base-changing rule ] a lo g a b = b
