Answer:

72 animals

Step-by-step explanation:

Let d = dogs

d+d25% = cats

Changing to decimal form

d+.25d= cats

d(1.25) =cats

There are 40 cats

d(1.25) =40

Divide each side by 1.25

1.25d/1.25 = 40/1.25

d =32

There are 32 dogs and 40 cats

The total number of animals

32+40 = 72

Answer:   I think the answer is 72  if u add a  total of 32 plus 40 it equals to 72
