Answer:

45

Explanation:

Let us assume the Bags of oranges be x

Now the cost price is 2500x

Sale price N = 90,000

Loss =20%

As we know that

Cost price= selling price × 100/ 100-percentage loss

= 90,000 × 100/ 100- 20

= 90,000 × 100 /80

Cost price= 112,500

Now

The Number of bags of oranges is

= 112,500 ÷ 2500

= 45
