To simplify the expression 13 - 2(1 - 15)/4, we need to perform the operations inside the parentheses first:

13 - 2(-14)/4

Next, we simplify the expression inside the parentheses:
13 + 28/4

Next, we perform the division:
13 + 7

Finally, we add:
20

Therefore, the simplified expression is 20. The correct answer is D.
