Answer:
in short, Yes they are always rational.
here's why...
E.g. suppose
and
are fractions, that means that a,b,c,d are all integers, and b and d are not zero. finding the sum the numerator, and denominator would also have to be integers. the denominator of the sum can't be zero since the denominators of the fractions were not zero, and would give
and since they are bound by addition (sum means addition) they must also be rational since eit would equal a bigger integer than initially had

Answer:
51,111%
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that 45% have a dog but no cat. While 23% have both a dog and a cat.
Then Pr(X has cat|X has dog) = Pr(X has dog and cat)/Pr(X has dog)
= Pr(X has dog and cat)/Pr(X has dog) = 0.23/0.45 = 0.51 ≈ 51,111%
The probability that a student’s family owns a cat if the family owns a dog is 51,111%
