    51,111%

    Step-by-step explanation:

    We know that 45% have a dog but no cat. While 23% have both a dog and a cat.

    Then Pr (X has cat|X has dog) = Pr (X has dog and cat) / Pr (X has dog)

    = Pr (X has dog and cat) / Pr (X has dog) = 0.23/0.45 = 0.51 ≈ 51,111%

    The probability that a student's family owns a cat if the family owns a dog is 51,111%
