    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.
