The Boxes
There are three boxes. One is labeled "APPLES" another is labeled "ORANGES". The last one is labeled "APPLES AND ORANGES". You know that each is labeled incorrectly. You may ask me to pick one fruit from one box which you choose.
How can you label the boxes correctly?

Saandeep SreerambatlaPick one from the box 3 named apples & oranges.
You will find either of these , name the box accordingly...
Change the names of the other two boxes as they are said to be incorrect in the question. -
pradeep_agrawalHere is my solution:
Pick a fruit from box "Apple and Orange".
If the fruit is Apple:
Apple and Orange -> Apple
Orange -> Apple and Orange
Apple -> Orange
If the fruit is Orange:
Apple and Orange -> Orange
Orange -> Apple
Apple -> Apple and Orange

Actually,in that puzzle there are three boxes and they are named incorrectly and you have to name them correctly.You will be given only one chance to open any one of the boxes and pick up any one fruit,with that one fruit taken out you should find the names of all the boxes correctly.shalini_goel14OK , I ask you to pick up an APPLE for me ๐ I could n't get your puzzle.
Hope i have made it clear.
