Answer:

[tex]\huge\boxed{\sf 5\ red\ pencils}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Total pencils = 30

Probability of picking a red = 1/6

Red pencils in the box = probability × total pencils

= 1/6 × 30

= 5 red pencils

So, there are 5 red pencils in the box.

[tex]\rule[225]{225}{2}[/tex]

Hope this helped!
