The given problem is a conditional probability problem.

Probability that a student has a cat given that he/she has a dog is represented as:

[tex]Pr(C|D)=\frac{Pr(CnD)}{Pr(D)}[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} \text{CnD}=16 \\ \text{Sample space=28+16+24}=68 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Thus,

[tex]Pr(\text{CnD)}=\frac{16}{68}=0.2353[/tex][tex]\begin{gathered} Number\text{ of dogs only=28} \\ Pr(D)=\frac{28}{68}=0.4117 \end{gathered}[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]undefined[/tex]
