There are 3 baskets. one of them have apples, one has
oranges only and the other has mixture of apples and
oranges. The labels on their baskets always lie. (i.e. if
the label says oranges, you are sure that it doesn't have
oranges only,it could be a mixture) The task is to pick one
basket and pick only one fruit from it and then correctly
label all the three baskets.

Answer Posted / girija

Consider, the baskets: APPLE ORANGE MIXTURE
contents: ORANGE MIXTUR APPLE

Take a fruit from the basket mixture, U'll get apple, as
the basket lies u r sure that it is not a mixture so
definitely it has apples, and the basket which was named
orange will not has oranges and so it must have miture of
fruit in it and so obviously the basket which was named as
apple has orange in it, so name them accordingly...
