Answer:

i think the answer will be 37 people own dogs

Explanation:

  • some important information is that there are a total of 10,000 people in the town.
  • if you survey 120people
  • which 83 say yes to a dog
  • so you have to subtract the amount of people you surveyed which was 120 people - the 83 people who said yes.
