Answer:
(C)81
Step-by-step explanation:
Total Number of Students =300
Percentage who had cats, n(C) = 40%
Percentage who had both cats and dogs , [tex]n(C \cap D)[/tex] = 12%
Percentage who had neither cats nor dogs, [tex]n(C \cup D)'[/tex] =45%
Now:
Universal Set, [tex]U = n(C)+n(D)-n(C \cap D)+n(C \cup D)'[/tex]
[tex]100 = 40 + n(D)-12+45\\n(D)=100-73\\$Percentage of those who own dogs =27\%[/tex]
Therefore:
Number of Students who had dogs
=27% of 300
=81
