The proportion of the number of cups of sugar syrup in a pitcher of lemonade can be calculated as follows:

3 cups of sugar syrup : 5 cups of lemon juice

To simplify this ratio, we can divide both sides by the greatest common divisor, which is 1:

3 cups of sugar syrup ÷ 1 : 5 cups of lemon juice ÷ 1

This gives us the proportion:

3 : 5

Therefore, the proportion of the number of cups of sugar syrup in a pitcher of lemonade is 3:5.
