Let the cost of one orange be x.

The total cost of the apples is 4 * K1.25 = K5.00
The total cost of the oranges is 3 * x = 3x
The total cost of the pears is 5 * K1.15 = K5.75

The total cost of all the fruits is K26.50

So, K5.00 + 3x + K5.75 = K26.50
8x = K16.75
x = K2.09

Therefore, one orange costs K2.09.
