Choose 1 answer:

(Choice A)
They have too much caramel.

(Choice B)
They have too little caramel.

(Choice C)
They are just right

Answer 1

Answer: Choice A (they have too much caramel)

Why?

Because first of all, Ari likes 3 ounces caramel for 5 scoops ice cream

Caramel for one scoop ice cream = $\frac{3}{5}$ = 0.6

So Ari likes 0.6 ounces caramel for 1 scoop ice cream

Let's see how much caramel Freeze Zone uses for 1 scoop ice cream:

6 ounces caramel for 8 scoops ice cream

= 0.75 ounces caramel for 1 scoop ice cream

∴ There is too much caramel for Ari
