Think about how many 3's and 5's do you have to add together to get 30. Then you find your answer.
The answer = 5+3+5+3+5+3+5 How many 3's are there?

To find out how many straws in a package of 30 will be red, we first need to determine the ratio of red straws to the total number of straws in the package.
Given that three out of every five straws in the package are red, we can express this as a ratio: 3:5.
Next, we can set up a proportion to find the number of red straws in the package of 30 straws:
3/5 = x/30
To solve for x (the number of red straws), we can cross-multiply:
3 * 30 = 5 * x
Simplifying this equation gives us:
90 = 5x
Now, we can solve for x by dividing both sides of the equation by 5:
x = 90/5
Simplifying this gives us:
x = 18
Therefore, there will be 18 red straws in a package of 30 straws.
