a
2/5
b

c
4/25
d
3/5

1 answer

To find the fraction of the fruit that are oranges, we can subtract the fraction that are apples (2/5) from 1 (since the total fruit is the sum of the apples and oranges).

1 - 2/5 = 5/5 - 2/5 = 3/5

Therefore, the fraction of the fruit that are oranges is 3/5.

So, the correct answer is d) 3/5.
