To find out how many animals are there altogether, we need to calculate the total number of animals in the pet shop. Since 25% of the animals are rabbits and there are 12 rabbits, we can set up the following equation:
0.25x = 12
Solving for x:
x = 12 / 0.25
x = 48
Therefore, there are 48 animals altogether in the pet shop.
