How many people in 100 are left handed?

Approximately 10% of the population is left-handed, so in a group of 100 people, you can expect around 10 to be left-handed.


What race has the most left-handed people?

There isn't a specific race that has the most left-handed people overall, as left-handedness can be found in all races and ethnicities. It is estimated that around 10% of the world's population is left-handed, regardless of race.


Are there more right handed people then left handed people?

Most humans are right handed but this may be as a result of centuries of disapproval of left handedness and therefore children were forced to be right handed in case they were accused of being odd or 'of the dark side'. The word sinister means to be on the left in heraldic language. In France a sinistre is a fire started deliberately. It has dark connotations whereas to be dextrous or have dexterity is to be on the right and be quick handed. Left handedness is inherited and along with red hair may be a genetic trait of Neanderthal man.This is of interest but not proven to be true.


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.
