Answer: 15 picks.


Explanation:

Given : Luna ray has 5 orange picks and no green ticks.

If we add some green picks so 1 in every 3 picks is orange

Therefore, the ratio of total picks to orange pick is 3:1

If there are 5 orange picks , then the total number of picks= 3 times 5

Thus, the total number of picks=3×5= 15 picks.

Therefore, there are 15 picks now.
