Answer:
It is always important to go through the given problem first to get a concept of the requiremement. Then all the information's available from the question has to be noted down in such a manner that there would be no need to look at the question while solving.
Total number of students wearing jeans = 10
Total number of students wearing shorts = 9
Total number of students wearing capris = 2
Then the total number of students surveyed by Mrs Lane = (10 + 9 + 2)
= 21
Now percentage of students wearing shorts = (9/21) * 100
= (3/7) * 100
= 300/7
= 42.85 percent
So a total percentage of 42.85% of the students were wearing shorts.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
9/25
Step-by-step explanation:
Our denominator is the total amount in class. x/25
Our numerator is the total of people are "the probability that a student chosen at random has a cat and a dog" Which is -9.

Hi!
In my opinion, the easiest way to solve a problem like this is to find the greatest common factor (GCF) of the numerator and denominator and then divide both numbers by the GCF.
So first we need to find the factors of 45 and 72 and find the factor that has the most value that the two numbers both have.
45: 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, and 45
72: 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 9, 12, 18, 24, 36, 72
It looks like the GCF is 9. Now we have to divide 45 and 72 by 9.
45 ÷ 9 = 5
72 ÷ 9 = 8
So the correct answer should be:

Hope this helps :)
