Solution

The correct option is C $30 %$
Let the percentage sales of mangoes $= x %$

$\frac{N u m b e r o f m a n g o e s s o l d}{N u m b e r o f a p p l e s s o l d} = \frac{6}{5}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{x}{25} = \frac{6}{5}$

$\Rightarrow x = 25 \times \frac{6}{5} = 30$ .

$∴$ The percentage sale of mangoes $= 30 % . [B]$
