Answer:

195 students are left-handed

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the total number of students who are left-handed

Let the total number of students in the school be x

The total ratio is 8 + 3 = 11

8/11 * x = 520

8x = 11 * 520

x = (11 * 520)/8

x = 715 students

So the number of students who are left handed will be;

Total - number of right-handed students

That would be;

715-520 = 195
