Answer:

90 red pens

Step-by-step explanation:

we need to find the least common multiple of the numbers 3 , 5 , 6 , 9

9 = 3²

then

LCM(3,5,6,9) = 2×5×3² = 2×5×9 = 90

The number 90 can be divided into 3 ,5 ,6 ,9 with no remainder

Therefore the pack must have 90 pens or a multiple of 90

For example 180 , 270 ...
