To find the ratio of the number of female runners to the total number of runners, we first need to determine the total number of runners.
There are 3 men and 20 women, so:
\[
\text{Total number of runners} = \text{Number of men} + \text{Number of women} = 3 + 20 = 23
\]
Next, we identify the number of female runners, which is 20.
Now, we can set up the ratio of the number of female runners to the total number of runners:
\[
\text{Ratio} = \frac{\text{Number of female runners}}{\text{Total number of runners}} = \frac{20}{23}
\]
Thus, the ratio of the number of female runners to the total number of runners is:
\[
\frac{20}{23}
\]
There are 3 men and 20 women, so:
\[
\text{Total number of runners} = \text{Number of men} + \text{Number of women} = 3 + 20 = 23
\]
Next, we identify the number of female runners, which is 20.
Now, we can set up the ratio of the number of female runners to the total number of runners:
\[
\text{Ratio} = \frac{\text{Number of female runners}}{\text{Total number of runners}} = \frac{20}{23}
\]
Thus, the ratio of the number of female runners to the total number of runners is:
\[
\frac{20}{23}
\]
