Explanation:

Step1: Calculate the percentage of people who like cats

In a Venn diagram, the percentage of people who like cats is the sum of the percentage of people who like only cats and the percentage of people who like both cats and dogs.
The percentage of people who like only cats is \(10\%\) and the percentage of people who like both cats and dogs is \(63\%\). So the percentage of people who like cats is \(10\%+63\% = 73\%\)

Answer:

A. The statement is true.
