Question

if 12% of 150 is left handed how many percent is right handed

Answer 1

If 12% of 150 people are left-handed, then the number of left-handed people can be calculated as follows:

\[
\text{Number of left-handed people} = 0.12 \times 150 = 18
\]

To find the number of right-handed people, subtract the number of left-handed people from the total number of people:

\[
\text{Number of right-handed people} = 150 - 18 = 132
\]

Now, to find the percentage of right-handed people:

\[
\text{Percentage of right-handed people} = \left( \frac{132}{150} \right) \times 100
\]

Calculating that gives:

\[
\frac{132}{150} = 0.88
\]
\[
0.88 \times 100 = 88\%
\]

So, 88% of the people are right-handed.
