Answer:

12% of the 25 men are left handed.

Explanation:

3 x

------ = -------

25 100

All you have to do to find the percent of something is to multiply and then divide.

YOU HAVE TO DO THE CROSS-METHOD, ALSO CALLED THE BUTTERFLY-METHOD.

3 x 100 = 300/25.

'/' in algebra also stands for division.

HOPE IT HELPED!!
