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.

Basket lebel: mixed apple orange
Item in basket: apple mixed apple
Now pick one item from basket labeled mixed then you will
get apple. So basket labeled apple must have mixed and
basket labeled orange must have apple. Now label according
to them.
