  1. Take one fruit from box with label mixture. If we see
    orange, because the basket lies (it cant have a mixture),
    then it has only oranges. The other 2 are labeled apples and
    oranges. The one labeled apples,
    cannot have oranges inside, cos they are allready been
    identified, and because it lies, it cannot have apples either.
    So it has a mixture. And we are left with the one labeled
    oranges that lies and has apples.

  2. TAKE A FRUIT FROM A BASKET NAMED AS MIXURE.IT MAY BE A APPLE
    OR ORANGE.NOW NAME THIS AS APPLE OR ORANGE ACCORDINGLY AND
    NAME THE BASKET LABLED ORANGE AS MIXTURE.AND NAME THE OTHER
    AS APPLE OR ORANGE ACCORDING TO FIRST ONE.
