The probabilities of the orphaned pets in six cities' animal shelters being different types of animals are given in the table. If a randomly selected orphaned pet in a St. Louis animal shelter is a dog, what is the probability that it is a mastiff? 15.30% 18.15% 21.04% 21.84%

sorry it did not come out right
post a PICture
do you see the link
focus on the "st louis" row only highlight the dog columns
Add up those percentages and then divide the mastiff percentage by the total you previously got P(mastiff) = (mastiff percentage)/(sum of highlighted percentages)
so how do i get the answer
what did i do wrong i got 11.69
helo?
P(mastiff) = (mastiff percentage)/(sum of highlighted percentages) P(mastiff) = (2.46)/(11.69) P(mastiff) = ??
divide
yes
ok im dumb now i got 0.210
wait never mind it 21.04
it should be 21.04%, yes
thats not one of the answer choices please help ?
