To solve the Apple-Orange logic puzzle, one must identify the correct contents of the three boxes based on their misleading labels.
Abstract
The content presents a logic puzzle that is often used in job interviews at Apple. The puzzle involves three boxes, each labeled with a different combination of apples and oranges, but the labels do not accurately reflect the contents of the boxes.
The key to solving the puzzle is to recognize that the boxes are mislabeled. If a box is labeled with both apples and oranges, it can only contain either apples or oranges, not both. By analyzing the possible scenarios, the reader can determine the correct contents of each box.
The article walks through two possible cases: 1) if the box labeled with apples and oranges contains apples, and 2) if the box labeled with apples and oranges contains oranges. In both cases, the reader can deduce the contents of the other two boxes based on the logic of the puzzle.
The author encourages the reader to pause and try to solve the puzzle before revealing the solution, emphasizing that it is not as difficult as it may seem at first glance. The puzzle is presented as a fun brain teaser that tests logical thinking, a valuable skill for aspiring Apple employees.
