Answer 1

7/16

7 is dog 9 is cat

7+9=16

Answer 2

The ratio of dogs to animals
`(9)/(16)`.

Explanation:

If the shelter captures 9 dogs they also catch 7 cats.

So,

the total number of Animals = Total number of Dogs + Total number of Cats

=
`9+7`

=
`16`

Therefore,

The ratio of dogs to animals = Number of Dogs / Total number of animals

=
`(9)/(16)`
