An apple approximately gives 2 gm of fiber 4 thin slices of papaya gives 5 GM of fiber like wise other fruits the fiber content varies between 2 to 5 or 6 gms only it's not practically possible to provide 40 GM of fiber per day only from fruits as fruits have a fructose load and when eaten more than 100 to 150gms can increase calories as well as triglycerides which is a bad fat

Hope you are clear regarding consumption of quantity of fruits as the process of digestion and assimilation of fiber by humans is very complex as it supports gut microbes.

Daily fiber requirement can’t be met just with fruits.
Other whole grains and pulses, vegetable are need to be taken with fruits to meet the requirement.
