ANSWER

D. 14

EXPLANATION

The ratio of the books in the book case are:

Red:Yellow:Green=3:5:2

The number of yellow books in the book case is 35.

If 5 corresponds to 35, then 2 green books will correspond to a less number of books,

By proportion, because it is going to be less more will divide.

The number of green books in the book case is

[tex] = \frac{35 \times 2}{5} [/tex]

[tex] = 7 \times 2 = 14[/tex]
