Total number of fruits = 10 (bananas) + 5 (mangoes) + 5 (apples) = 20
Number of favorable outcomes (apple or banana) = 10 (bananas) + 5 (apples) = 15
Probability of selecting an apple or a banana = Number of favorable outcomes / Total number of outcomes
= 15 / 20
= 3 / 4
= 0.75
Therefore, the probability of selecting an apple or a banana from the basket is 0.75.
