Answer:

22/29

Explanation:

First, add up all of the numbers given:

16 + 4 + 6 + 3 = 29

Now since there are 16 students who have a dog and a cat, and 6 who only have a dog, we add those numbers:

16 + 6 = 22

Now since there are 29 total numbers, that will be the number of outcomes out of the 22 people with dogs:

22/29
