The total number of campers participating in the nature hike is 15 + 20 = 35. The number of female campers who signed up for the nature hike is 20.
To find the percentage of campers participating in the nature hike that are female, we can use the formula:
(Female campers in nature hike / Total campers in nature hike) x 100
Plugging in the values, we get:
(20 / 35) x 100 = 57.1%
Therefore, the answer is option B, 57.1%.
