    There are 25 red flowers in the garden.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    In this problem we have a common issue where the number is repeated 3 times in questions. So I'll sove it using the ratio 5 reds to 10 yellows and the data that there are 75 yellows and red flowers in the garden.

    Since we know that for every 5 red flowers in a garden there are 10 yellow ones, then the ratio of yellow flowers to red flowers is

    ratio = red/yellow = 5/10 = 1/2

    yellow = 2*red

    Since there are 75 yellow and red flowers in the garden we have:

    yellow + red = 75

    2*red + red = 75

    3*red = 75

    red = 75/3 = 25

    There are 25 red flowers in the garden.
