A local little league has a total of 85 players,of whom 80% are left-handed.how many left-handed players are there
The information’s already
provided in the question should never be neglected. They are actually the
required information’s to reach the correct answer.
Total number of players in the little league = 85
Percentage of players that are left handed = 80%
Number of players that are left handed = (80/100) 85
= (8/10) 85
= 680/10
= 68
So among the total of 85 players in the little league, there are 68 left handed players.
I hope that the answer and the technique has helped you.
♥ To solve we need to find 80% of 85 players
or 80% of 85
80/100 85
8/10 85
We get
68.
Therefore 38 out of 85 people are left handed.
