To find out how many students are left-handed, you can calculate 5% of 840 students.
First, convert the percentage to a decimal:
\[ 5\% = \frac{5}{100} = 0.05 \]
Now, multiply the total number of students by the decimal:
\[ 0.05 \times 840 = 42 \]
Therefore, there are 42 left-handed students at the summer camp.
