Answer:

c. 60.278%

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a 27.778% probability that someone owns a dog.

There is a 45% probability that someone is a male.

However, these two are not mutually exclusive.  12.5% both own a dog and are male.  If we simply add 27.778% and 45%, we'll be double counting the overlap.  To avoid this, we subtract 12.5%.

27.778% + 45% − 12.5% = 60.278%
