    To determine the number of right handed students, subtract the number of left handed students from the total number.

    right handed = total - left handed

    Substituting the given,

    right hand = 18 - 3 = 15

    Calculate for the ratio of the right handed to left handed through dividing 15 by 3 which will be further simplified.

    15 / 3 = 5 / 1

    Therefore, the ratio of the right handed to left handed students is 5:1
