There are 15 players and 3 are to be chosen at random. The players are numbered 01, 02, 03, 04, ... 09, 10, 11...15. Segment the numbers in the line from the random number table into two-digit numbers. 16 91 0 3 80 10 80 64 9 3 11 22 09 27 9 8 17 76 Read the entries from left to right. The first number, 16, is not assigned to anyone. Skip it. Ditto for 91. 03 is one of the players so there's the first random player number. --> FIRST 80 is not a player number 10 is a player number so there's our second random player. -------> SECOND 80 is not a player number. 64 is not a player number. 93 is not a player number. 11 is a player number so there's our third random player. ------> THIRD Players with numbers 3, 10, and 11 are chosen. ***
