1 / 3 of 6 dozen fruits are apples means:

1 / 3 ∙ 6 = 6 / 3 = 2 dozen apples

1 / 4 of all the fruits are oranges means:

1 / 4 ∙ 6 = 6 / 4 = 2 ∙ 3 / 2 ∙ 2 = 3 / 2 = 1.5 dozen oranges

The rest of the fruits are bananas means:

6 dozen fruits - 2 dozen apples - 1.5 dozen oranges are bananas.

6 - 2 - 1.5 = 2.5 dozen bananas
