Part 1
A local little league has a total of 85 ​players, of whom ​20% are​ left-handed. How many​ left-handed players are​ there?

1 answer

To find the number of left-handed players, we can multiply the total number of players by the percentage of left-handed players.

Number of left-handed players = Total number of players x Percentage of left-handed players

Number of left-handed players = 85 players x 20% = (85 * 20)/100 = 17 left-handed players

Therefore, there are 17 left-handed players in the local little league.
