Each box contains at least 120 and at most 144 oranges. So boxes may contain 25 different numbers of oranges among 120, 121, 122, .... 144. Lets start counting. 1st 25 boxes contain different numbers of oranges and this is repeated till 5 sets as 25*5=125. Now we have accounted for 125 boxes. Still 3 boxes are remaining. These 3 boxes can have any number of oranges from 120 to 144. Already every number is in 5 boxes. Even if these 3 boxes have different number of oranges, some number of oranges will be in 6 boxes. Hence the number of boxes containing the same number of oranges is at least 6.
