Answer:

Explanation:

On pet day 18 children brought a pet to school.

2/3 of the pets were dogs. This means that the number of pets that were dogs would be

2/3 × 18 = 12 dogs

1/9 of the pets were cats. This means that the number of pets that were cats would be

1/9 × 18 = 2 dogs

Total number of dogs and cats is

12 + 2 = 14

The number of animals that were neither dogs nor cats is

18 - 14 = 4
