Since we have 5 dogs to 3 cats, we can find a scale factor. Our new proportion is x:15.
To solve for this, we need to divide 15 by 3 to get our scale factor to find x.
15/3 = 5, so our scale factor is 5.
Multiply 5 dogs by 5 to get the new ratio.
Our new ratio is 25:15, meaning that we have 25 dogs total.
Your answer is 25 dogs.
I hope this helps!

Math help its urgent. I'll mark brainliest!!!
Goshia [24]

It's been such a long time, but I think (1) should be the addition property since your adding 5 to both sides.

And (2) should be the multiplication property due to multiplying both sides by 2.
