Answer:

Balancing chemical equations is my priority!! :-)


Ca_(2) +
O_(2) =
Ca_(2) O_(3)

On both sides Calcium (Ca) is balanced ( 2 and 2 )

Then Oxygen (O) is 2 on the reactant side and 3 on the product side.

Divide the subscripts (product subscript/reactant subscript) to give 1.5 (3/2)

Because you can't put 1.5 in an equation you multiply everything by 2.

Then it comes
2Ca_(2) +
3O_(2) =
2Ca_(2) O_(3)

Have a wonderful day! :-)
