Best Answer

Approximately 12%

So 12% of 7,000,000,000 (approx)

7,000,000,000/100 = 70,000,000

70,000,000 x 12= 840,000,000 left handers (less than the population of 2 of the world's countries- so not a lot really)

What is the ratio of right handed to left handed people in the US?

I'm not 100% sure about this, but I have been doing a report on asymmetries betweent the right and left hands and the differences in these asymmetries between right- and left-handers, and from the information I have come across the 1 to 9 ratio seems to be pretty well accepted. (10% left-handed / 90% right-handed). Please correct me if you have more specific or up to date info. I believe ur right about that and of that 10%, 70% are males and 30% are females which means that 90% of the world is right-handed and 10% is left, 7% of the world is left-handed males and 3% is left-handed females. I believe you may be wrong because if 10% of people are left handed then 90% of people are right handed then how many people are ambidextrious? ^The amount of ambidextrous people is assumed to be negligible in this case.
