    There are 350 key chains,

    10% are yellow, the number of yellow is 350 x10 / 100 = 35

    the number of green, 3/5

    let's find 3/5 of 350, it is 3/5x 350 = 210

    there are 210 green

    and 210 green represents 210*100/350=60%

    so the percentage of the red is

    100%=60%+10%+X, where X is the percentage of the red key

    so X = 100%-70%=30%

    and the number of red key is 350x30 / 100=105
