7 Red stripes.

The U.S. flag also known as Old Glory, the Star-Spangled Banner, or simply the Stars and Stripes, has been an important national symbol since it's official birth on June 14, 1777.

50 Stars: Represents the 50 states with the USA

13 Stripes: The Seven red and six white horizontal stripes represent the original 13 colonies

Red: Signifies hardiness and valor

White: Signifies purity and innocence

Blue: Signifies vigilance, perseverance, and justice.

Simply there are exactly seven red stripes on the American flag. (There are six white stripes, for a total of 13, representing the 13 original American states. There are a total of 50 stars on the American flag - one for each state. Since the first US flag in 1777 there have been 27 different numbers and arrangements of stars. In 1795 after Kentucky and Vermont joined the US we added two more stars to the original 13 and two more stripes to the original 13. This is our "Star Spangled Banner" to which we dedicate our National Anthem: It has 15 stars and 15 stripes. In 1818, the Legislature decided to go back to 13 red and white alternating stripes representing the original 13 states and add a new star to the flag on the 4th of July for each new state.
