Answer: A) 0.410

In order to solve this problem, you should create two equations using two variables (x and y) and the information you're given. Let x be the number of left-handed female students and let y be the number of left-handed male students. Using the information given in the problem, the number of right-handed female students will be 5x and the number of right-handed male students will be 9y. Since the total number of left-handed students is 18 and the total number of right-handed students is 122, the system of equations below must be true:

x+y=18

5x+9y=122
