Answer:

The fraction of the animals at the pet show were rabbits = 1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that,

In a pet show 3/8 were cats and 4/8 were dogs. The rest of the animals were rabbits.

To find the fraction of rabbits

Let 'x' be the fraction of rabbits the we can write

3/8 + 4/8 + x = 1

7/8 + x = 1

x = 1 - 7/8

x = (8 - 7)/8

x = 1/8

Therefore, the  fraction of the animals at the pet show were rabbits = 1/8

Answer: [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

The total animals at the pet show is represented with:

[tex]\frac{8}{8}=1[/tex]

Then, knowing that  3/8  of the total animals were cats, 4/8 of the total animals were dogs and the rest were rabbits, and you need to find the fraction  of the animal pet show that were rabbits, you can make the following subtraction:

[tex]1-\frac{3}{8}-\frac{4}{8}=\frac{1}{8}[/tex]

Therefore: [tex]\frac{1}{8}[/tex]  of the animals of the pet show were rabbits.
