    To calculate the ratio of 5 meters to 20 kilometers, we need to convert the measurements to a common unit. Since both meters and kilometers are units of length, we can convert meters to kilometers or kilometers to meters.

    Let’s convert 5 meters to kilometers:
    1 kilometer (km) is equal to 1000 meters (m), so we divide 5 meters by 1000 to get the equivalent value in kilometers:
    5 meters / 1000 = 0.005 kilometers (km).

    Now we can compare 0.005 km to 20 km:
    Ratio = 0.005 km / 20 km = 0.00025.

    Therefore, the ratio of 5 meters to 20 kilometers is 0.00025.
