The probability that a child chosen at random from the class has both a cat and a dog is 1/10.

Suppose b is the total number of kids that have both:

• children having a cat Only must be 14 - b

• children having a dog Only must be 19 - b

We also get:

We also know there are 30 kids, therefore

⇒ (14 - b) + b + (19 - b) = 30

⇒ 33 - b = 30

⇒ b = 3

Consequently, we now understand:

3/30 = 1/10
