Answer:

14 red crayons

Step-by-step explanation:

since we already know the ratios of the crayons we are going to use ratio and proportion to solve our question B:R is 32:28 and they are directly proportional meaning we can scale the quantities by multiplying.32:28 and 16:R , r is the unknown quantity ,then we cross multiply  the 2 ratios to get 32R= 448, then we divide by32 both sides so we can remain with the value of R which is 14
