We have to find the revenue share from orange as compared to revenue from all the fruits.
Statement 1 - The numbers of bananas, mangoes, apples and oranges sold were in the ratio 4:1:2:3.
We know the relation of price per fruit in terms of price of mango. We also know the ratio of numbers of the 4 fruits. Ratio of revenue from orange to ratio of revenue from all the fruits can be found out as the common factor of price of mango will cancel out in both numerator and denominator.
Sufficient
Statement 2 - The total revenue from the sale of apples, mangoes, oranges and bananas is $66
We can't find out the ratio of revenue by this statement
Not sufficient

Statement 1: Ratio of fruits sold provided, the question provides the prices too relatively. It is sufficient to calculate the revenue from oranges as compared to the total revenue from all the fruits.
Statement 2: Without exact count of fruits sold, we cannot find the revenue from oranges as compared to the total revenue from all the fruits.
