Answer:

51,111%

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that 45% have a dog but no cat.  While 23% have both a dog and a cat.

Then Pr(X has cat|X has dog) = Pr(X has dog and cat)/Pr(X has dog)

= Pr(X has dog and cat)/Pr(X has dog) = 0.23/0.45 = 0.51 ≈ 51,111%

The probability that a student’s family owns a cat if the family owns a dog is 51,111%
