Answer 1

To find the number of right-handed players, you can calculate 80% of the total number of players.

1. Total players = 70
2. Percentage of right-handed players = 80% = 0.80

Now, multiply the total number of players by the percentage of right-handed players:

\[ \text{Number of right-handed players} = 70 \times 0.80 = 56 \]

So, there are 56 right-handed players.
