Not sure what you are asking, retype your question

anonymous · Answer

total number of runners = 560

According to the questrion, number of women = $$\frac{ 3 }{ 4 } \times (Total Runners)$$$$\frac{ 3 }{ 4 } \times 560 $$
= 420 

And the number of men = 560 -420 
                                    = 140.
