Answer:

40 chocolates

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the full box is equal to 100%, we should divide the total by the amount of caramel chocolates. 100/12.5=8. Since there is 5 caramels, multiply 8 by 5. Your answer is 40.

Answer:

Just see that the first expression has all negative, meaning the total will be a negative, but the second expression the subtraction sign and the negative sign are together, there's a rule when two negative sign's are together/next to each other, they turn into a addition sign, so it basically 8 + 20 for the second expression, so 8-(-20) has a higher result
