Given, total number of fruits = 30.

Number of mangoes = $\dfrac{1}{5}$ of 30.

$\Rightarrow \text{Mangoes} = \dfrac{1}{5} \times 30 \\[1em] = \dfrac{30}{5} \\[1em] = 6.$

Number of oranges = $\dfrac{2}{5}$ of 30.

$\Rightarrow \text{Oranges} = \dfrac{2}{5} \times 30 \\[1em] = \dfrac{60}{5} \\[1em] = 12.$

Hence, there are 6 mangoes and 12 oranges in the basket.
