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 / nicholas namefield
There is no answer. Yes, start with the mixed basket.
However, if you pull either an apple or an orange from that
basket, you still don't know if it was mixed or not. This
is an impossible question with no answer, only optimistic
guesses.
