dalvyx [7]

Answer:

9/25

Step-by-step explanation:

Number of student who has cat , dog = 25 - 3 = 22

Number of students who has cat and dogs = (15 + 16) - 22

= 31 - 22 = 9

Number of students who has only cats = 15 - 9 = 6

Number of students who has only dogs = 16 - 9 = 7

P(Cat & dog) = 9/25
