Answer: Ari thinks amount of caramel is more for perfect milkshake as there is only need for 4.8 ounces of caramel but Freeze Zone is using 6 ounces of caramel.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Ari has 3 ounces of caramel for every 5 scoops of ice-cream .

Freeze Zone makes batches of milkshakes with 6 ounces of caramel and 8 scoops of ice-cream.

According to Ari,

For every 5 scoops of ice-cream, he needs 3 ounces of caramel

For every 1 scoop of ice-cream, he needs

[tex]\frac{3}{5}\text{ ounces of caramel}[/tex]

For every 8 scoops of ice-cream, he needs

[tex]\frac{3}{5}\times 8=\frac{24}{5}=4.8\text{ ounces of caramel}[/tex]

So, Ari thinks amount of caramel is more for perfect milkshake as there is only need for 4.8 ounces of caramel but Freeze Zone is using 6 ounces of caramel.
