• Oranges in bad condition

$\orange{\boxed{\pink{\underline{\red{\mathfrak{Solution-}}}}}}$

Total oranges = 120

Number of oranges in bad condition = $\sf{\dfrac{1}{5}}$ × Total oranges

$\implies$ Number of oranges in bad condition = $\sf{\dfrac{1}{5}}$ × 120

$\implies$ Number of oranges in bad condition = $\sf{\dfrac{1}{\cancel{5}}}$ × $\cancel{120}$

$\implies$ Number of oranges in bad condition = 24
