The total number of fruits in the basket is 10 (bananas) + 5 (mangoes) + 5 (apples) = 20 fruits.
The probability of selecting an apple or a banana = (Number of apples + Number of bananas) / Total fruits
= (5 + 10) / 20
= 15 / 20
= 0.75
Converting 0.75 to a percentage:
0.75 * 100% = 75%
Therefore, the probability of selecting an apple or a banana is 75%.
