Answer / maqsood
Pick a ball from box labelled mixed,
it surely is one among blue or red,[cannot be mixed box]
u get red[say] ,label it red,
next the other two left boxes have blue and mixed balls.
the two left boxes are wrongly labelled as red and blue.
blue box cant have blue balls or red balls so it has mixed
balls.
finally the leftover box is having colored balls.

Answer / nandkishor lokhande
pickup one ball from 'mix box'
if ball is red rename it to 'new red box'.
then rename 'red box' to 'new blue box'
and rename 'blue box' to 'new mix box'
as old names are wrong.
else if ball is blue rename it to 'new blue box'.
then rename 'blue box' to 'new red box'
and rename 'red box' to 'new mix box'
as old names are wrong.
and we get correct names

Answer / navaneet sarma
Say If you pickup a red ball from the mixed bag the probability of the the other two bags having either mixed or blue balls is 50/50 as there is not enough empirical evidence to suggest that the bag marked as blue/red cannot have mixed balls hence either of them can be mixed in this scenario ! The term "all the labels are marked incorrectly" doesn't provide enough data and can also mean that either the blue bag or the red bag was originally mixed!

Answer / jitendra
There are only 2 ways you can label the bags incorrectly
1) M=rr , R=bb B =rb
2) M=bb, R=rr B =rb
if one picks ball from mixed bag then he can know the balls in all the bags.
