60% of all the town's residents own a dog and 65% own a cat.
Of the dog owners 44% also own a cat.
If a town resident is chosen at random find: (round to 4 decimal places where possible)
a. P(Own a Dog) = 60% = 0.6.
b. P(Own a Cat) = 65% = 0.65.
c. P(Own a Cat and a Dog) = 0.6*0.44 = 0.264 = 26.4%.
d. P(Own a Dog GIVEN Own a Cat) = P(own both)/P(own a Cat) = = 0.4062 = 40.62%.
