<h2>Addition</h2><h3>Concept</h3>

Add units together in order to reach a sum.

<h3>Utilization</h3>

In this problem, you are told to find the probability (or %) that someone owns either a dog, OR a cat. If they own both - then they do in fact own a dog or cat. So the formula is:

dog owners % + cat owners % + both owners %

Aka,

23 + 18 + 5 = 46

<h3>Answer</h3>

The answer is 46% of people own either a cat or a dog, because 23% + 18% + 5% is 46%.
