-----------
Draw a Venn diagram of two intersecting circles. Label it properly and find
that the intersection contains 180 people that have a dog and a cat.
-----------------
Formula:
dog owners + cat owners = 596
596 - 416 = 180 is the number with both a dog and a cat
180 of the dog owners also have a cat.
