You would choose to draw from the box labeled "Apples and Oranges"...Whatever fruit you draw is the fruit from that box. (you know this is the case because the boxes are mislabeled) You then proceed to relabel the box with "Apples" if that is what you drew. Then you relabel the original "Apples" box to "Oranges" and the original "Oranges" box to "Apples and Oranges".

Three boxes are labels apples oranges and apples and oranges you can only select one fruit from onle one box from which box should you pick and how will that help you to correctly label the ot?

I believe this question should also stipulate that the boxes are incorrectly labelled, then my solution works (I think)! It's easier if you number the boxes:- The box labelled the oranges is box no.1 " " " " apples " " " 2 " " " " apples & oranges is box no. 3 Now remembering that box no.1 is incorrectly labelled "oranges" Box no.2 is incorrectly labelled "apples" and Box no.3 is incorrectly labelled "apples & oranges". Take a sample from box no.3....if it is an apple, then box no.3 holds apples. Box no.2 labelled "apples" is wrong so this box must contain oranges and this leaves box no1 which must hold apples& oranges. This works in reverse (if you pick an orange from box no.3), so you always start with box no.3

Don runs a charity fruit sale selling boxes of oranges for 11bucks and boxes of grapefruit for 10bucks If he sold a total of 762 boxes and took in 8125bucks how many boxes of oranges did he sell?

The boxes of oranges can be represented by x.The boxes of grapefruit can be represented by y.If he made 8,125 dollars, then he made it off of 10 and 11 dollar boxes.So, 11x+10y=8,125And if he sold 762 boxes, they could only be orange and grapefruit boxes.So, x+y=762So we can solve for y.y=762-xThen we substitute.11x+10(762-x)=8,125And solve for x.x+7,620=8,125x=505So, there were 505 boxes of oranges.

How can you correctly label three mislabeled boxes of oranges apples and both apples oranges by opening only one box?

Open the box labeled "Apples and Oranges" If there is an apple inside, you know there can ONLY be apples inside because it's improperly labeled already. Now you also know that the box labeled "Apples" is incorrect as well because you have just found the proper apple box. Without looking in any other box, you know the box labeled "Oranges" is actually "Apples and Oranges" and the box labeled "Apples" is actually "Oranges".

The difference between labels and text boxes?

Labels are used as headings for things that are created when the system is. Text boxes start as empty boxes that people can type into when a program is running. If you have ever filled out a form on the internet, you type your information into text boxes and beside the text boxes are labels telling you what to type into them, like your name or address. You cannot type into the labels themselves, just into the text boxes. You'll have done all of this when you were entering in this question.
