Answer:

12 rabbits

Step-by-step explanation:

Take long word problems like these step-by-step:

The pet store has 96 pets. Since half are fish, there are 48 fish. If one eighth of the pets are hamsters, there are 12 hamsters

If an eighth of the pets are dogs then there are 12 dogs and if an eighth of the pets are cats then there are also 12 cats. Since the rest are rabbits, we can subtract the amount of non-rabbits from the total (96 pets). There are 48+12+12+12=84 non-rabbits, and therefore 96-84=12 rabbits.
