Apples and Oranges?

You have 3 baskets, one with apples, one with oranges and one with both apples and oranges mixed. Each basket is closed and is labeled with ‘Apples’, ‘Oranges’ and ‘Apples and Oranges’. However, each of these labels is always placed incorrectly. How would you pick only one fruit from a basket to place the labels correctly on all the baskets?

  1. Since all the labels are placed on the inappropriate baskets. So we pick the one labeled apple and orange. If it is an apple, that means the basket with label apple have oranges because if they have apple and organs, then orange labeled basket contain organ which is against the argument of the question.
