The cost of packaging of the oranges is 15% the cost of fresh oranges themselves. The cost of oranges increased by 35% but the cost of packaging decreased by 40%, then the percentage change of the cost of packed oranges, if the cost of packed oranges is equal to the sum of the cost of fresh oranges and cost of packaging.
