Answer: Following the rules of PEMDAS, you want to divide both sides of the equation by -2. This would change your equation to x+3=5. Then you move your constant to the right-hand side and change its sign. Your equation is now x=5-3. subtract 5-3 and your answer is x=2.

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratio of Ari's perfect ice cream is

333 caramel : 555 scoops

Not proportional because you multiply 333 x 2 to get 666, but when you multiply 555 x 2 you wont get 888.

And tell her to cut down on the sugar.
